Thanks very good

Minimal tests:

- Player doesn't work ... oops no -fs used
- Encoder seems to work ... DOS GUI app but progress indicator shows garbage
- No docs ... what input formats does the encoder accept ?

YES, it is needed / useful. MPLAYER indeed plays OGG Theora (.OGV) movies also ... but it's very bloated so there is much space left for a tiny DOS video player.

only I have DOS here

BTW: Theora codec and LibTheora 1.0b3 are good but the lib (+ many encoders) have "unnecessary" bugs. 1.0 final was expected in 2008 May but as we know coding is hard
