SDL MPEG Player (SMPEG)

[dcr8520]

SMPEG is a free MPEG1 video player library with sound support.  Video playback is based on the ubiquitous Berkeley MPEG player, mpeg_play v2.2.  Audio is  played through a slightly modified mpegsound library, part of Splay v0.8.2.
 SMPEG supports MPEG audio (MP3), MPEG-1 video, and MPEG system streams



This library is distributed under the GNU Library Public License (LGPL  version 2. (and was compiled with: -m68020-60

 plaympeg are simple video player provided to test the library. (it requires the same for SDL library: CGX, AHI, etc) The C library interface is 'documented' in smpeg.h, and the C library interface is spread out over the MPEG*.h files.

It doesn't work for me, just generates endless yellow alerts when run.

I think your missing the point.  SMPEG is a library with a player "plaympeg" which just demonstrates the use of that library and isn't meant to be a fully featured mpeg player.  SDL and SMPEG are commonly used on LINUX to make all sorts of cool stuff.  plaympeg is just a concept player.

Look at this as a good thing.  Linux enjoys inovation by Open Source programers using such libries and the amiga can now enjoy more of the same. :-)
