Chameleo: A New Open Source Video Player

by Sam Dean - May. 14, 2008Comments (1)

A Korean software company called NomadConnection has released Chameleo, a pretty-looking open source video player with a focus on extensibility and widgets. The software, based on GStreamer and other open source projects, supports a wide variety of codecs. The sample widgets that come with Chameleo give video watchers the ability to take screen captures, blog what they’re watching, use video tags and subtitles, open new files, and browse the web. A Linux version and a Mac version are coming up in a matter of weeks. Our sister blog NewTeeVee has the details.
