    MPEG-2  Decoder
    
    
 Based on mpeg2decode
  Copyright (c) 1996 
 MPEG Software Simulation Group



The changes made to the original mpeg2decode source core are the follows:


 - It extract to PPM format only
 - Added methods to dump between frames/GOPs
 - Rewrited the proccess_options procedure
 - Removed the code to decode P & B frames (this speed up the program!)..
 - Added functions imp() and getime()
 - ...may others but I dont remember now ;)


I want to thank a lot to Christian Effenberger, for all your notes about how
mpg2ppm must work, without him I was not able to do this...
