Use MPV in your C# apps

MPVSharp provides C# bindings for libmpv, a library for embedding amazing MPV player into another apps.

Installation

MPVSharp - main package, requires libmpv to be installed on the user system or provided together with your application (works on Windows and Linux).

MPVSharp.Bundled - has libmpv built-in (Windows 64-bit only, the build is from this repo).

How to use

API documentation is available here.

There are 2 namespaces:

  • Nickvision.MPVSharp.Internal provides objects and methods that closely follow libmpv C API. You can find functions from client.h in MPVClient.cs and functions from render.h in MPVRenderContext.cs
  • Nickvision.MPVSharp gives you another objects that work on top of Internal counterpart, but provides you with various helpers and convenience functions. They are easier to use, but the API is slightly different than in Internal, so you will probably want to read docs for Client.cs to find what methods you can use.

Look at the examples to get the basic idea how to use MPVSharp.

There are comments in the code, but they are mostly an adaptation of some parts of comments from libmpv, which is very well documented:

Refer to MPV documentation to find the list of options, commands and properties.
