NAME

       gtkspu - Decodes and displays MPEG2 Sub Picture Unit (SPU) streams

SYNOPSIS

       gtkspu { file } [ which ]

DESCRIPTION

       gtkspu  decodes  and displays MPEG2 Sub Picture Unit (SPU) streams. SPU
       streams normally  occur  in  DVD  .VOB  files.  Examples  of  SPUs  are
       overlays, subtitles, and DVD menus.

       Most  likely  you  will  use  the  mpegcat  utility  to extract the SPU
       streams. Instructions for extraction of SPU streams can be found in the
       man page for mpegcat.

       Given an SPU file "dump.spu" extracted with mpegcat, you can run gtkspu
       multiple times to view its contents:

               $ gtkspu dump.spu 0
               $ gtkspu dump.spu 1
               $ gtkspu dump.spu 2
               ...
