PL_MPEG
Single-file C library for decoding MPEG1 video and MP2 audio with minimal dependencies.
What is PL_MPEG?
PL_MPEG is a single-file C library designed to decode MPEG1 video and MP2 audio streams from MPEG-PS containers. It solves the problem of adding video playback to applications or games without relying on large, complex libraries like ffmpeg, offering a lightweight and dependency-free alternative.
C/C++ developers building applications or games that require simple video playback, especially those working in resource-constrained environments or seeking minimal dependencies.
Developers choose PL_MPEG for its extreme simplicity, single-file design, and patent-free codec support, making it ideal for projects where lightweight integration and ease of use are prioritized over advanced multimedia features.
