# libquvi(3)

Overview of the library

## NAME

libquvi - Overview of the library

## DESCRIPTION

libquvi is a cross-platform library with C API for parsing adobe flash media properties. "quvi" is an acronym for "query video".

## ENVIRONMENT

LIBQUVI\_EXCLUSIVE\_SCRIPTS\_DIR

When defined, the library will **only** use those scripts found at the directories specified by the LIBQUVI\_SCRIPTS\_DIR.

**Note**\
 Useful, for example, when the current set of the scripts at $top\_srcdir/share/ (of libquvi-scripts) are being tested by the testsuite of the libquvi-scripts. The library would, otherwise, include the scripts from the libquvi-scripts instance built with the library and likely interfere with the tests.

LIBQUVI\_SCRIPTS\_DIR

The library will additionally look in the colon-separated list of directories specified by the LIBQUVI\_SCRIPTS\_DIR environment variable.

LIBQUVI\_SCRIPTS\_VERBOSE

When defined, enables the output from any libquvi scripts using the debug facility (*quvi/debug* module).

LIBQUVI\_SHOW\_DIR

When defined, the library will output the paths of the searched directories to the stderr.

LIBQUVI\_SHOW\_SCRIPT

When defined, the library will output the file names of the found scripts to stderr. The output will also indicate whether the script was accepted by the library.

Proxy

libquvi uses [**libcurl**(3)](/libcurl/3.md). See the libcurl documentation (C API and/or [**curl**(1)](/curl/1.md)) for a complete list of the supported proxy environment variables.
