SYNOPSIS¶
plaympeg [
options]
file ...
DESCRIPTION¶
plaympeg is an MPEG audio and video player that uses the SDL MPEG Player
Library. It can play back MPEG audio (layer 1, 2 and 3), MPEG video (MPEG-1)
and MPEG system (audio and video combined) files. MPEG-2 video files (as found
on DVDs) are not supported.
The video player works best on a 16 bit color depth X11 display, it works on
other color depths with reduced speed as well. You'll need a CPU with 300 MHz
or more to play back an MPEG system stream with 25 frames per seconds (fps) at
full speed.
