| 6040 | 17 <P>It is important to clarify a common mistake. When people see a file with a |
| 18 <B>.AVI</B> extension, they immediately conclude that it is not an MPEG file. | |
| 19 That is not true. At least not entirely. Contrary to popular belief such a file | |
| 20 <B>can</B> contain MPEG1 video.</P> | |

| 6040 | 27 <P>In theory, you can put an OpenDivX video and MP3 audio |
| 28 into an <B>MPG</B> format file. However, most players will not play it, since | |
| 29 they expect MPEG1 video and MP2 audio (unlike <B>AVI</B>, <B>MPG</B> does not have the | |
| 30 necessary fields to describe its video and audio streams). | |
| 31 Or you might put MPEG1 video into an AVI file. <A HREF="http://ffmpeg.sourceforge.net">FFmpeg</A> | |
| 32 and <A HREF="encoding.html">MEncoder</A> can create these files.</P> | |

| 6040 | 41 <P>MPEG files come in different guises:</P> |
| 42 | |
| 43 <UL> | |
| 44 <LI>MPG: This is the most <B>basic</B> form of the MPEG file formats. It contains | |
| 45 MPEG1 video, and MP2 (MPEG-1 layer 2) or rarely MP1 audio.</LI> | |
| 46 <LI>DAT: This is the very same format as MPG with a different extension. It is used | |
| 47 on <B>Video CD</B>s. Due to the way VCDs are created and Linux is designed, | |
| 48 the DAT files cannot be played nor copied from VCDs as regular files. You have | |
| 49 to use the <CODE>-vcd</CODE> option to play the Video CD.</LI> | |
| 50 <LI>VOB: This is the MPEG file format on <B>DVD</B>s. It is the same as MPG, plus the | |
| 51 capability to contain subtitles or non-MPEG (AC3) audio. It contains encoded MPEG2 | |
| 52 video and usually AC3 audio, but DTS, MP2 and uncompressed LPCM are allowed, too.<BR> | |

61 the aspect ratio of the video stream within. For example SVCDs have |
| 6040 | 62 480x480 resolution video, and in the header that field is set to 4:3, so that |
| 63 it is played at 640x480. AVI files do not have this field, so they have to be | |
| 64 rescaled during encoding or played with the <CODE>-aspect</CODE> option.</P> | |

| 6040 | 213 <P><B>MPlayer</B> is a <B>Movie</B> and not a <B>Media</B> player, although |
| 214 it can play some audio file formats (they are listed in the sections below). | |
| 215 This is not a recommended usage of <B>MPlayer</B>, you better use | |
| 216 <A HREF="http://www.xmms.org">xmms</A>.</P> | |

| 220 | |
| 221 <P>You may have problems playing certain MP3 files that <B>MPlayer</B> will | |
| 222 misdetect as MPEGs and play incorrectly or not at all. This cannot be fixed | |
| 223 without dropping support for certain broken MPEG files and thus will remain | |
| 224 like this for the foreseeable future. The <CODE>-demuxer</CODE> flag described | |
| 225 in the manpage may help you in these cases.</P> | |
