Description: Software-only MPEG video player
 This program decodes and displays an MPEG-1 video stream.  The
 program has been written to be portable, which means it has not
 been optimized for specific platforms.  The decoder is implemented
 as a library that will take a video stream and display it in an X
 window on an 8, 24 or 32 bit deep display.
 .
 For more information on MPEG standards and other MPEG software and
 hardware, see http://www-plateau.cs.berkeley.edu/mpeg/index.html.
 This mpeg_play has been upgraded to version 2.3-patched.
