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 secons (fps) at full speed.
