Most of the code in +the library comes directly from the Berkely MPEG player, an +X11-specific implementation that works fine, but suffers from minimal +documentation and a lack of modularity. A front end to the Berkeley +decoding engine was developed by Greg Ward at the Montreal +Neurological Institute in May/June 1994 to facilitate the development +of an MPEG player specifically for Silicon Graphics workstations; the +decoding engine together with the MNI front end constitute the MPEG +Library. |
