-MPlayer - Movie Player for LINUX (C) 2000-2001 Arpad Gereoffy (A'rpi/ESP-team)
-================================ * See the file AUTHORS for the complete list *
-http://mplayer.sourceforge.net (or http://mplayer.dev.hu)
-
-About:
-~~~~~~
-MPlayer is a movie player for LINUX. It plays most MPEG, AVI and ASF files,
-supported by many native and Win32 DLL codecs. You can watch VCD, DVD and even
-DivX movies too. The another big feature of mplayer is the wide range of
-supported output drivers. It works with X11, Xv, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev,
-but you can use SDL (and this way all drivers of SDL, for example AAlib) and
-some lowlevel card-specific drivers (for Matrox) too! Most of them supports
-software or hardware scaling, so you can enjoy movies in fullscreen. And what
-about the nice big antialiased shaded subtitles (7 supported types!!!) with
-hungarian, english, cyrillic, czech, korean fonts, and OSD?
-
-History:
-~~~~~~~~
-This began a year ago...
-I've tried lots of players under linux (mtv,xmps,dvdview,livid/oms,VideoLAN,
-xine,xanim,avifile,xmmp) but they all have some problem. Mostly with
-special files or with audio/video sync. Most of them is unable to play
-both MPEG1, MPEG2 and AVI (DivX) files. Many players have image quality
-or speed problems too. So I've decided to write/modify one...
-
-- mpg12play v0.1-v0.3:
-  The first try, hacked together in a half hour!
-  I've used libmpeg3 from www.heroinewarrior.com up to the version 0.3,
-  but there were image quality and speed problems with it.
-- mpg12play v0.5-v0.87:
-  Mpeg codec replaced with DVDview by Dirk Farin, it was a great stuff,
-  but it was slow and was written in C++ (I hate C++!!!)
-- mpg12play v0.9-v0.95pre5:
-  Mpeg codec was libmpeg2 (mpeg2dec) by Aaron Holtzman & Michel Lespinasse.
-  It's great, optimized very fast C code with perfect image quality and
-  100% MPEG standard conformance.
-- MPlayer v0.3-v0.9:
-  It was a pack of two programs: mpg12playv0.95pre6 and my new simple AVI
-  player 'avip' based on avifile's Win32 DLL loader.
-- MPlayer v0.10:
-  The MPEG and AVI player in a single binary!
-- MPlayer v0.11:
-  Some new developers joined and from 0.11 the mplayer project is a team-work!
-  Added .ASF file support, and OpenDivX (see www.projectmayo.com) en/decoding.
-- MPlayer v0.17 "The IdegCounter"
-  The release version of the 0.11pre after 4 months of heavy development!
-  Try it, and be amazed! Thousands of new features added... and of course
-  old code was improved too, bugs removed etc.
-- MPlayer 0.18 "The BugCounter"
-  2 months since 0.17 and here's a new release.. Completed ASF support,
-  more subtitle formats, introduced libao (similar to libvo but to audio),
-  even more stable than ever, and so on. It's a MUST !
-
-As you see, I didn't write any codecs, just some players. Instead I spent
-a lot of time finding the best way to parse bad damaged input files
-(both MPEG and AVI) and to do perfect A-V sync with seeking ability.
-My player is rock solid playing damaged MPEG files (useful for some VCDs),
-and it plays bad AVI files which are unplayable with the famous
-windows media player. Even AVI files without index chunk are playable, and
-you can rebuild their indexes with the -idx option, thus enabling seeking!
-As you see, stability and quality are the most important things for me,
-but the speed is also amazing.
-
-What about the GUI?
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-I'm not a GUI programmer. I hate GUIs, I like the pure black 80x25 console.
-So the player has only keyboard control from the controlling console/xterm now.
-There is a GUI development for the player, coordinated by Pontscho/Fresh!
-It's still under development, but it will be merged and released real soon.
-BTW he needs some nice skins, if you are a good graphician, contact him!!!
-
-Supported input formats:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-- VCD (Video CD) directly from CD-ROM or from CDRwin's .bin image file
-- DVD, directly from your DVD disk, using optional libcss for decryption
-- MPEG 1/2 System Stream (PS/PES/VOB) and Elementary Stream (ES) file formats
-- RIFF AVI file format
-- ASF 1.0 file format

-- native ALSA 0.9 driver (buggy, use OSS emulation!)
-- native ESD driver (under development?)
-- SUN audio driver (/dev/audio) for BSD and Solaris8 users
-
-NOTE: check DOCS/SOUNDCARDS for details!
-
-Speed:
-~~~~~~
-Most of time-critical parts are optimized for MMX/MMXext/SSE/3DNow!/3DNow!Ex.
-You can improve rendering speed by setting up MTRR registers, see doc in MTRR.
-Some *old* benchmark results can be found in the file DOCS/SPEED.
-
-Usage:
-~~~~~~
-  file:  mplayer [options] [path/]filename
-  VCD:   mplayer [options] -vcd trackno /dev/cdrom
-  DVD:   mplayer [options] -dvdauth /dev/dvd filename.VOB
-  net:   mplayer [options] http://site.com/file.[mpg|avi]
-
-  Options:
-    see  `mplayer -h'  for options
-    see  `mplayer -vo help'  for list of available video output drivers
-    see  `mplayer -ao help'  for list of available audio output drivers
-
-  Keys:
-    <-  or  ->      seek backward/forward 10 seconds
-    up or down      seek backward/forward 1 minute
-    p or SPACE      pause movie (press any key to continue)
-    q  or  ^C       stop playing and quit program
-    o               toggle OSD : none / seek / seek+timer
-    /  and *        decrease/increase volume
-    m               toggle using master/pcm channel for volume setting
-    f               toggle fullscreen (only with -vo sdl)
-
-  Examples:
-    mplayer -vo x11 /mnt/Films/Contact/contact2.mpg
-    mplayer -vcd 2 /dev/cdrom
-    mplayer -afm 3 /mnt/DVDtrailers/alien4.vob
-    mplayer -dvd /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd/matrix.vob
-    mplayer -abs 65536 -delay -0.4 -nobps ~/movies/test.avi
-
-  Note:  in order to use Matrox YUV driver (-vo mga or xmga), first you'll have
-         to load the driver: see DOCS/VIDEOCARDS .
-
-Playing from Net & stdin:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Now it's possible.
-
-To play something by reading from stdin, just use '-' as filename:
-
-cat test.mpg | mplayer -vo xv -
-
-Restrictions:
-	mpg: no backward seeking
-	asf: no backward seeking
-	avi: no index reading -> no seeking at all, and playing of some files are
-		+impossible
-
-No control from controlling terminal/xterm, but hotkeys and osd works
-from the window. or course LIRC still works everywhere.
-
-This feature combined with external wrappers extends possibilities.
-For example, to play a movie just downloaded from your favourite divx
-server:
-	rar p ast-nssvcd.rar | mplayer -vo xmga -fs -
-or:
-	wget ftp://micorsops.com/something.avi -O - | mplayer -
-
-
-TV output:
-~~~~~~~~~~
-If you have a Matrox G400 Dual-Head card, you can watch movies on TV, using
-the TV-out feature of the second head. Read DOCS/TVout-G400 for details!
-
-Sending bugreports, comments, feature requests etc:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-First please read all the docs in this package, most of the problems are
-described somewhere. At least read DOCS/BUGS !  We don't like answering
-questions which are already answered in this readme or other docs.
-
-Read the DOCS/MPlayer-FAQ. Most common problems are answered there!
-
-You should try the latest development version (from CVS) too, maybe your
-bug is already fixed, but the new version hasn't been released.
-If you couldn't solve the problem, then send a quality bugreport:
-read DOCS/BUGREPORTS for instructions (where, what and how...)
-
-Subscribe to the mplayer-users mailing list. There are many MPlayer
-users, maybe they can help or know the solution to your problem.
-You also should send ideas, feature requests, comments to there!
-Please do not ask for features already listed in the DOCS/TODO!
