In addition, we also provide tutorials for compiling and installing our software from source code, Please go to here 🐧.
Until then, there are three things to note.
⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ Vulkan sdk is necessary, please download and install it.⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ For linux, please make the AppImage file executable by the following command:chmod +x MEC_SDL2_OpenGL3-linux-x86_64-x.x.x.AppImage
⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ And if you're using linux distros that use fuse3, and miss libfuse.so.2 to run the AppImage file, you can install it by:sudo apt install libfuse2
Mec relies on some of our other projects. If you are interested in how it's built, you can browse through these projects, which we are constantly updating:
- imgui (https://github.com/opencodewin/imgui.git)
- blueprintsdk (https://github.com/opencodewin/blueprintsdk.git)
- mediacore (https://github.com/opencodewin/MediaCore.git)
Mec is created by ours and we welcome every contribution. At present, it has achieved quite a lot functions, which also means that it is becoming increasingly large. We don't recommend that you add new functions to this current code. If you really need this functions, please contact us.
Mec supports plug-in frameworks, which can expand Filters, Transitions, Effects and AI, according to your own needs. Currently, we offer the following built-in plugins:
