what is it?
a simple bink player.. running under uefi!
how?
from the outside it looks like wine but less running under uefi instead of linux.
i respect the firmware, but i also make it dance.
legal?
nobody noticed this yet.
either a job offer or a C&D 🙏
how 2 build
open x64 vs dev prompt
build.batrun.bat- enjoy
the video to play is fatroot/video.bk2
how hard was it?
Bink file handlers are slightly more complicated to write on generic x86, because Bink doesn't handle the threading for you. Drop us an email, and we can send you the default file IO system, and so that you can modify it for your platform.
We can send you many different source examples for various sound systems (waveOut, SDL, CoreAudio, etc), so that you can get up and running quickly. E-mail us for details.
except i'm a student with no access to the sdk.
- Include bink.h in your source files. You may want to add an directory include to your compiler line in your make file.
- Add the #define RADX32 to your compiler command line.
- Add the BinkX32Imp.c and RADDLL.c files to your project. These are the files that load the BinkX32.dll binary module.
except i only had the windows dll (bink2w64.dll).
q&a
Q: Why does it exist?
A: Science isn't about 'why', it's about 'why not'.
Q: Why not raw frames?
A: Too simple.
Q: How did you implement file I/O? A: I didn't. I just preload the entire video into memory.
Q: Is this finished?
A: Mostly yes.
Q: Can I use this in production?
A: Define production.
Q: Will you add audio?
A: soon™
