You might want to have a look at MAD project. It is an independent implementation of the ISO/IEC MPEG standards. Its source code might give you some insight. http://sourceforge.net/projects/mad/ I was, once upon a time trying to play mpeg streams using python-pymad library. Would you be interested in having the unfinished python source? Anurag -- http://bsd.miki.eu.org/roller/page/anurag __ __ gnu /noo/ n. Ox like antelope; (abbr.) /gnoo/ n.
