This project is a Playdate Video encoder. .pdv files can be played on a Playdate using the video player in the SDK. You can also run a .pdv file using Playorama, “A cranky video player for the Playdate” that I also built.

This project runs on Jekyll. (Because… Why not?)

1. Clone the repository.

git clone https://github.com/hteumeuleu/pdv.git

See Cloning a repository on GitHub documentation. If you're not familiar with Git or GitHub, I strongly encourage you to try GitHub's desktop app on macOS, Windows or Linux.

2. Install Jekyll and other dependencies.

bundle install

See Jekyll Installation Guide.

3. Run Jekyll.

bundle exec jekyll serve

You can turn on incremental regeneration with the --incremental flag.
