If you are using **Fedora**, you can build an RPM and let DNF/YUM manage all dependencies for you. First of all, enable the `RPM Fusion <http://rpmfusion.org/>`_ repositories. Then, you can download the latest RPM, if available, or build it by yourself::

  $ git clone https://github.com/Enchufa2/video-tester.git
  $ cd video-tester
  $ make bdist_rpm
  $ cd dist

and then install it::

  $ sudo dnf install VideoTester-x.x.x-1.noarch.rpm

Method 2 (all distributions):

You need to manually install all the required dependencies.
