Thanks for your reply. I have downloaded the smpeg-0.4.4 version of the
software. when I try to use this to display a mpeg file, it does not do
anything and the terminal just hangs. The same thing happens when I try
to do SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO); in a c program.

Can someone help?

with regards and thanks,

Hi all!
I would like to know if it is possible to display the videos existing in
either .avi or .mpeg format by calling the SDL library. Does anyone have
a routine to do so?
Take a look at http://www.loigames.com/development/smpeg.php3

I’m guessing you’re running SuSE 7.X
