%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ libmpeg2-&libmpeg2-version; libmpeg2 Introduction to libmpeg2 The libmpeg2 package contains a library for decoding MPEG-2 and MPEG-1 video streams. The library is able to decode all MPEG streams that conform to certain restrictions: constrained parameters for MPEG-1, and main profile for MPEG-2. This is useful for programs and applications needing to decode MPEG-2 and MPEG-1 video streams. &lfs76_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &libmpeg2-md5sum; Download size: &libmpeg2-size; Estimated disk space required: &libmpeg2-buildsize; Estimated build time: &libmpeg2-time; libmpeg2 Dependencies Optional and User Notes: Installation of libmpeg2 Install libmpeg2 by running the following commands: sed -i 's/static const/static/' libmpeg2/idct_mmx.c && ./configure --prefix=/usr && make To test the results, issue: make check.
