libplacebo is a flexible, high-performance graphics library built on top of Vulkan, designed to provide reusable GPU-accelerated components for media applications. It originated as a core part of the rendering pipeline for the mpv media player and has since grown into a standalone library used for tone mapping, dithering, color space conversion, and more. libplacebo is ideal for developers looking to integrate sophisticated video rendering and post-processing into their own applications with full control over shaders and rendering stages.
Features
