# Play video file
You can play VVC video codec with .h266, .vvc, .266 and anything or .mp4 muxed with VVC codec:
```
ffplay_g versatile.266
```
# Limitations of FFmpeg VVC encoder
Before encode to VVC video codec, see the limitations below.
libvvenc (FFmpeg vvc version) works for:
- Pixel format ✅ (changeable of 8/10bit)
- Video size (auto detects, but it doesn't detect for SAR and DAR anamorphic is glitch and corrupts the video ) ⚠️ (Better way to use vvencapp without FFmpeg)
- Frame rate ✅ (auto detects)
- MP4 Muxing :x: (does not support, you need MP4BOX after encode.)
- Audio with encode VVC ⚠️ (does not support, because it can corrupt the file) To avoid corrupt file, you need to disable audio using `-an` or you could do output container for .266, .vvc and .h266 too.
- Bitrates ✅
- Passes ⚠️ (only one pass)
- Presets ⚠️ (only medium preset)
- QP/CRF ⚠️ (only you can set -global_quality command only, global_quality equals qp)
Built in libvvenc for FFmpeg command:
```
ffmpeg -i example.mp4 -c:v libvvenc -global_quality 37 -pix_fmt yuv420p10 example.266
```
Additional command: You can convert to vvc video without taking a much space for vvencapp, example:
```
ffmpeg -i example.mp4 -f rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p - | vvencapp -i - -s 1920x1080 -r 25 --preset medium --qp 32 -o example1.266
```
Replace video size for `-s` and frame rate for `-r`.
### Update 21th May 2022 of FFmpeg vvdec support
Good news, you can play .mp4 file after .h266 and audio format were merged into mp4 playable of VVC.
About [xHE-AAC](https://www.iis.fraunhofer.de/en/ff/amm/broadcast-streaming/xheaac.html), there is no decode support of FFmpeg. The reason is a license fee, but except [Exhale](https://gitlab.com/ecodis/exhale) (encoder) is free to use and open source. However, you can also merge your encoded xHE-AAC audio into mp4 too.
To make playable mp4 with audio and video together, you need VVC video encoded, audio file and [GPAC Nightly build](https://gpac.wp.imt.fr/downloads/gpac-nightly-builds/). Code for mp4box/gpac to merge VVC video encoded and audio file:
```
mp4box -no-probe -add video.266 -add audio.opus -new convertedvvc.mp4
```
Containers are also acceptable video containers of .mkv, .mp4, .mov and more.
For Linux and Mac OS users: Replace **mp4box** by **gpac**

# Mac OS downloaders (Important note)
Please note, that is not a malware of my compiled build, see the three screenshots to make run ffmpeg tools customised version
You need to allow the app on your Mac OS for chmod write access & Security & Privacy:
Step 1: Click cancel button, do not move to bin.

You may receive this error, if the vvc shared library was not found:
```
dyld: Library not loaded: @rpath/libvvdec.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/martineesmaa/Downloads/dddd3/./ffplay_g
Reason: image not found
```
The libvv(enc/dec).dylib needs to be patched of FFmpeg VVC version before run. You need patch two files to make work FFmpeg VVC version, you don't need to build if necessary:
```
sudo cp libvvenc.dylib /usr/local/lib/libvvenc.dylib
sudo cp libvvenc.dylib /usr/local/lib/libvvenc.dylib
```
Or outdated library was not found of some computers, so you can download x264 specified version of Homebrew or download new latest link of FFmpeg VVC version:
```
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/x264/lib/libx264.163.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/runner/work/libvvdec_fixmywin/libvvdec_fixmywin/./ffmpeg_vvceasy_mac
Reason: image not found
```
### Build Mac OS for FFmpeg VVC build
Requirements:
Xcode
Cmake
NASM
Homebrew
Code to build FFmpeg VVC version:
```
brew install x264 x265 libvpx libxml2 libopusenc
git clone https://github.com/fraunhoferhhi/vvenc
git clone https://github.com/fraunhoferhhi/vvdec
cd vvenc && mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=1 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..
cmake --build . --config Release --target install
cd ../../
cd vvdec && mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=1 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..
cmake --build . --config Release --target install
cd ../../
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/tbiat/FFmpeg
cd FFmpeg
./configure --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --enable-libvvenc --enable-libvvdec --enable-pic --enable-libxml2 --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-libvpx --enable-libopus --enable-sdl2
make
```
# Linux downloaders (Important note)
Unfortunately, this is Ubuntu 20.04 LTS build only.
Before you use FFmpeg, make sure you install all these requirements:
```
sudo apt install libxml2 libx264-dev libx265-dev libnuma-dev libxml2 libopus-dev libsdl2-dev
```
If you are using other linux without Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, you have to build using this:
```
sudo apt install build-essential cmake libx264-dev libx265-dev libnuma-dev libxml2 libopus-dev nasm libsdl2-dev && \
git clone https://github.com/fraunhoferhhi/vvdec.git && cd vvdec && \
make release && make install install-prefix=/usr/local && \
cd .. && \
git clone https://github.com/fraunhoferhhi/vvenc.git && cd vvdec && \
make release && make install install-prefix=/usr/local && \
cd .. && git clone https://github.com/tbiat/FFmpeg.git && cd FFmpeg && \
./configure --enable-gpl \
--enable-version3 \
--enable-libvvenc \
--enable-libvvdec \
--enable-pic \
--enable-libxml2 \
--enable-libx264 \
--enable-libx265 \
--enable-sdl2 \
--enable-libopus && \
make -j
```
If compiling is success and finished, you can install FFmpeg, using the code:
```
make install
```
For Linux downloaders to run FFmpeg, please copy these two files:
```
sudo cp libvvenc.so /usr/lib/libvvenc.so
sudo cp libvvdec.so /usr/lib/libvvdec.so
```
