Description: MPEGFast is an MPEG player written almost entirely in assembler. It more-or-less supercedes my old port of the Berkeley player. However, this player is not a port of the Berkeley MPEG player and contains none of their code, although being able to look at their code was a great help in writing this. Note: it does not have a snazzy (or otherwise) front-end but is launched, like the old one, by just double-clicking on an MPEG file. As long as the file has been filetyped correctly and !MPEGfast has been 'seen' by the Filer, the movie should start playing in the middle of the screen.
