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 seconds (fps) at full speed.
