[Pkg-exppsy-maintainers] Movies in PyEPL

[Per B. Sederberg]

Hi Everybody:

I used facilities that already exist in pygame, so everything works on
a pure debian machine.  It plays mpgs quite well and can even play
more than one at once, but it only plays the sound from the first
movie you add in.

Speaking of sound, pygame forces us to use its sound mechanism for
playing the sound from the movie and I have yet to test how this
interacts with the sound in pyepl (i.e., will we have to stop pyepl
sound temporarily or can they run simultaneously?).  The tests we made
had pyepl sound disabled at the outset.

I'll be in touch as I work through the remaining todos before this is
ready to release unto the world :)

Best,
Per
