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 over-
lays, 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
