Freun and Philip,

many thanks for you answer.

Looking at the CVS, vp32 looks fine for now, though I hope it delivers
reasonable quality. Btw, is there any additional documentation? I looked
at the docs in "vp32/Include/vfw_PB_Interface.h" (we want to interface
with the codec directly rather than using the Win32 DirectX/Media Player
interface), but it is very little documented.

Please let me know if you have a sample program (doesn't really matter
which platform) or any suggestion other than "look at the XINE source"
;-)

Okay, sounds familiar to me. Anyways, I'll continue to watch this list.

Thanks again.
