Dugl Player 0.45 - MPEG 1/2 DVD/VCD/SVCD (Announce)

Hi,
After two weeks of hard work on Berkley mpeg1/2 library, improving and writing a wrapper, I succeeded getting it to work very well decoding all mpeg1/2 video that I was able to test with :-)

So here a new version of DUGL Player 0.45 with MPEG1/2 back supported !

DUGL Player 0.45 (DOS compatible link)
DUGL Player 0.45 (mediafire link)

About using an improved berkley library :

The goods
- Free to use for any purpose. no GPL restriction ;-)
- Ignore correctly audio stream inside mpeg files (no need to mpgsplit any more)
- Small library size compared for example to libmpeg2, about 100kb only !

The bad
- It's about 10-20% slower than libmpeg2 on my system.

This is a pre-release version. I'm planning to release soon a newer 0.5 with more functionnality like (config file, fit/center switch ... )

As usually I'm waiting for tests and feedbacks :-)

Except for sound, that is.

	> > Plays every .mpg file I've fed to it just fine. Thanks for testing, I made more extensive tests and it seems that the player isn't very robust against malformed mpeg files. Hopefully no crash, he just stop playing this mpeg file. > Except for sound, that is. Yes no sound yet DOS really require sound support and an unified sound API or drivers.
