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.
