Version:  1.02

This MPEG-Video-Player is a rather fast player form
animations and movies in the MPEG-Video or MPEG-System
format.
The program features a Intent-Window with Close-Gadget :)
and at program end you will get a speed information (FPS-counter).

Normally you have to give the player in the command line the filename
of a MPEG video file. Since V1.02 opens a file requester if nothing is
specified.

!!! AmigaMPEGPlayer *requires* R. Collier's FileDialog  !!!
!!!             (ave/avo/gdg/std/filedlg)               !!!
        (you can get it from Amiga's FTP server)

Please let me know if and how (speed results!) AmigaMPEGPlayer works on
your machine. Thanks!

History:
1.00: - First public release.

1.02: - Gfx-speedup of about 15% by using direct draw into the pixmap.
        Many thanks to Jarno van der Linden for this great idea!!
      - Added a file requester which asks for a (MPEG-)file if nothing
        was specified in the command line.
      - The executable in V1.00 was compiled for a wrong path, fixed.
        The Makefile now compiles the executable as
        AmigaMPEGPlayer/AmigaMPEGPlayer.00
