How to use SMJPEG with SDL2?

Can SMJPEG be used with SDL2 or is it deprecated?

Can’t find any information about it.

Just want something fast and easy to use for playing M-JPEG so I can
jump to any frame instantly.

No one has touched SMJPEG in over a decade. It probably wouldn’t be hard
to get it to work with SDL2 (as it just wants to write into an
SDL_Surface), but I’m not aware of anyone trying to do so.

It looks like smjpeg is just a extension of libjpeg
http://libjpeg.sourceforge.net/

It’s probably just some lines of code in implement something like
smjpeg in within SDL_image

And it smjpeg has a easy interface, so maybe the missing the lines of
code could be included in SDL_image without hassle?

A M-JPEG file can hold many jgep files. So it could also be used as
many jpeg files in one, and not just for video playpack or video
cutting.
