NAME

plaympeg - MPEG audio (MP3) and video (MPEG-1) player

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 second (fps) at full speed.
