I don't believe there are any free .MPEG, .avi, or .vivo players
available (mtv has the annoying "register" popup all the time). A
Java class to do this would be really slick. Also, I don't think
there are any open source Java classes to load .tiff or .pnm formats.
A *real* hard project is to develop a class to load postscript format
files.
You would 1st need to find out exactly what the formats are. I don't
know where to find the format specifications for .MPEG, .avi, .vivo,
.tiff or .pnm, but they must be somewhere on the web. Postscript
specs are probably available on the web too and I know there are books
specifying its format. Perhaps someone knows of a good book with all
the specs?
