I use a freeware program called "Display", available from the SimTel
archives, that will display any MPEG-1 movie.  However, since it is a DOS
program and I'm running it under Windows, it won't play sound.  This
shouldn't matter for the IRTC, since sound is not supposed to be a
consideration for the competition.  Since the source code is available, it
should be possible to make a Linux/Unix port of the program.
