NAME

notcurses-view - Render images and video to the console

SYNOPSIS

notcurses-view [-h|--help] [-d delaymult] [-l loglevel] [-s scalemode] files

DESCRIPTION

notcurses-view uses the FFmpeg libraries and notcurses to render images and videos to the terminal. Media will be scaled to the terminal's size.

OPTIONS

-d delaymult: Apply a rational multiplier to the standard delay of 1s.

-l loglevel: Log everything (high log level) or nothing (log level 0) to stderr.

-s scalemode: Scaling mode, one of none, scale, or stretch.

files: Select which files to render, and what order to render them in.

NOTES

Optimal display requires a terminal advertising the rgb terminfo(5) capability, or that the environment variable COLORTERM is defined to 24bit (and that the terminal honors this variable), along with a fixed-width font with good coverage of the Unicode Block Drawing Characters.
