	As the gods would have it, in the last few weeks MPEG-1 encoder and
MPEG-2 encode and decode compiled for linux have shown up. I have tested
both and they work fine -- and Gimp 1.x includes the code for using
them. If they are needed by anyone, let me know and I will send or make
available on the web. 

	Comment on Gimp, its utilization code is not perfect. For example it
works fine on 0-99 but from 100-199 it looks for 0100-0199. But it does
that by creating a parameter file which you can hand edit. Also the
default IBP sequence produces huge and jerky mpegs. Where it has BB I
editted to one B and reduced the GOP from 16 to 11. Much smoother and
have the size. Also, increase the buffer by times 10 seems to help.
