Writing a simple media player with SDL, part 1.
Channel: Ryan C. Gordon

I can't sleep so this is some basic first steps on writing a media player with SDL.

This assumes you know some C (but nothing too extreme) and doesn't spend time on setting up a build environment. Go ask someone.

Make sure you set this thing to 1080p quality and put it fullscreen, so the text is actually legible.
I'll try to get the video to encode better next time, too!

The code at the end of the video, all 30 lines of it:

(The music is The Living Proof by Will Provost, my poor brain at midnight.)

Think this is interesting? Let me know if I should keep building this in future videos. Think _i'm_ interesting? Contribute to my Patreon:
