VLC Vetinari (360 video) .NET SDK

I'm trying to use a VLC player in my C# application, in order to play and control a 360 video.

I'm trying to use the VLC player to do so, but I can't find a SDK that supports 360 videos.

Does anybody know some SDK or API that I can use?

Solution

  • Yes you can achieve this with the LibVLC SDK.

    To make sure you're actually dealing with a 360 video, use

    bool Is360Video => _media.Tracks[0].Data.Video.Projection == VideoProjection.Equirectangular;

    To update the viewpoint, use

    MediaPlayer.UpdateViewpoint(yaw, pitch, roll, fov);
