How to build

VideoViewer requires some dependencies to be installed on the system:

cmake v3.20 or higher
glfw v3.3.6
Python 3

Retrieve dependencies with Conan (optional)

To use Conan 1.x to retrieve the dependencies, create the `modules`` directory and use the install command:

mkdir /path/to/modules
cd /path/to/modules
conan install /path/to/video-viewer -b missing -g cmake_find_package

VideoMaster SDK

The VideoMaster SDK is required to build the application.

After installing the SDK according to the official documentation, the libs and headers should be found without further step needed through the find_package command.

Building with CMake

If you used Conan to retrieve your dependencies, you can use the following commands to build the project:

cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_MODULE_PATH:PATH=/path/to/modules
cmake --build build
