NAME

libquvi - Overview of query media library

DESCRIPTION

libquvi is a cross-platform library for parsing flash media stream URLs with C API. The term "quvi" is a shorthand for "query video".

API documentation

<http://quvi.sourceforge.net/doc/>

Motivation

libquvi originates from the idea of allowing users to view the videos without having to install or use flash. It is a "workaround", not an "alternative" to flash.
