Abstract                : A simple player for MPEG videos.
                          The basic public domain player runs the video immediately.
                          It was modified in-house to give some user control.
                          It starts paused, and runs and re-pauses on receipt of Unix signals.

Related_Items           : There are some sample videos in the 
                          directory ../mpeg/mpeg_samples.
                          These should be used only for test purposes.
                          They were obtained with the understanding they would not be used after some short period.
                          
                          In the same directory is C++ code MpegPlayers.
                          This allows multiple players to be run and controlled asynchronousl

Additional_Info         : The basic player is in ./mpeg.
                          The modified main.c is ./mpeg_play.c.
                          Use Makefile.c to make modified player.
