Description: 
	
	View mpeg-1 audio and video multicast rtp streams.
		
	Writing an mpeg video/audio decoder library is beyond the scope of this
	project. Given more time and more programmers, it certainly is a 
	possibility. This is just a hack for unix systems to be able to recieve
	content that is pumped out by Cisco's IPTV Server, mimd, or other 
	tools capable of serving up multicast content.

Requirements:

	mtvp 
		this is a very good and fast command line mpeg player. 
		The mtvp binary is freely available for private noncommercial 
		use from :
		http://www.mpegtv.com/
		Optionally, mplayer can be substituted for mtvp if you
		prefer a GPL'd MPEG decoder. You must modify the source
		code to replace mtvp with mplayer:
		http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/

       mpg123
		this is a free mpeg layer 1,2,3 audio player for unix os's.
		check it out at: http://www.mpg123.de/

	mtvp and mpg123 need to be in your PATH . 
		
Installation:
	
	Untar the package. 
	To compile mim and/or xmim:

	./configure [--enable-gui (to enable xmim)]
	make
		
Running:
	
	MIM
	
	Currently this is a command line program.
	
	"mim -u" or "mim" will give usage info
		
	XMIM 
	
	Requires the gtk/glib libraries installed. This comes with a simple GUI
	which integrates an SAP listener. Point and click.
