## README

# YUView <img align="right" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IENT/YUView/develop/YUViewLib/images/IENT-YUView-256.png">

YUView is a QT based, cross-platform YUV player with an advanced analytic toolset.

## Build Status

![CI build](https://github.com/IENT/YUView/workflows/CI%20build/badge.svg?branch=develop)

## Description

At its core, YUView is a YUV player and analysis tool. However, it can do so much more:
* simple navigation/zooming in the video
* support for a wide variety of YUV formats using various subsamplings and bit depts
* support for raw RGB files, image files and image sequences
* direct decoding of raw h.265/HEVC bitstreams with visualization of internals like prediction modes and motion vectors and many more
* interface with visualization for the reference software decoders HM and JEM
* support for opening almost any file using FFmpeg
* image comparison using side-by-side and comparison view
* calculation and display of differences (in YUV or RGB colorspace)
* save and load playlists
* overlay the video with statistics data
* ... and many more

Further details of the features can be found either [here](http://ient.github.io/YUView) or

## Download

You can download precompiled binaries for Windows and MAC from the [release site](https://github.com/IENT/YUView/releases) which are all compiled on travis CI. On the release page you can find:

 - Windows installer
 - Windows zip
 - Mac OS Application
 - Linux Appimage

If you have Ubuntu 22.04 or newer, you can get YUView from the official repo: `sudo apt install yuview`. For other Linux based platforms we are also on [flathub](https://flathub.org/apps/details/de.rwth_aachen.ient.YUView). More information on YUView on Linux can be found in out wiki page ["YUView on Linux"](https://github.com/IENT/YUView/wiki/YUView-on-Linux). 

If none of these apply to you, you can easily [build YUView yourself](https://github.com/IENT/YUView/wiki/Compile-YUView).

## Building

Compiling YUView from source is easy! We use qmake for the project so on all supported platforms you just have to install qt and run `qmake` and `make` to build YUView. There are no further dependent libraries. Alternatively, you can use the QTCreator if you prefer a GUI. More help on building YUView can be found in the [wiki](https://github.com/IENT/YUView/wiki/Compile-YUView).
