How To Install libplacebo on Fedora 36

In this tutorial we learn how to install libplacebo in Fedora 36. libplacebo is Reusable library for GPU-accelerated video/image rendering primitives

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install libplacebo on Fedora 36.

What is libplacebo

libplacebo is essentially the core rendering algorithms and ideas of mpv turned into a library. This grew out of an interest to accomplish the following goals - Clean up mpv’s internal API and make it reusable for other projects. - Provide a standard library of useful GPU-accelerated image processing primitives based on GLSL, so projects like VLC or Firefox can use them without incurring a heavy dependency on libmpv. - Rewrite core parts of mpv’s GPU-accelerated video renderer on top of redesigned abstractions. (Basically, I wanted to eliminate code smell like shader_cache.c and totally redesign gpu/video.c)

We can use yum or dnf to install libplacebo on Fedora 36. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install libplacebo.
