Etymonix SoftReel is a faster than real-time MPEG-2 video decoder that has been optimized extensively for single-core and multi-core systems. It enables smooth high-quality playback of native MPEG-2 video files (MPG, VOB, DAT, M2P, M2V, ATI MP2) and compatible AVI files (EM2V and PIM2 formats) up to HD 1920x1152 in Windows Media Player and other DirectShow-compatible applications.
SoftReels robust design makes it resilient to bitstream errors (e.g. from transmission glitches or scratched video discs). It has been extensively tested on a wide range of x86 processors and Windows operating systems.
