Description
-----------

This patch release must be used to update MPEG Player version 1.1 only, and corrects the following:

1. Driver start-up hang.  On some PC's the MPEG Player MCI driver may hang on start-up.

2. No audio following cold boot.  On some PC's audio may be muted for the very first MPEG clip played following a cold boot.

3. SMARTDRV CD-ROM caching with VideoCD/CDi disks.  If SMARTDRV CD-ROM caching is enabled this will cause errors when trying to play VideoCD or CDi disks.  This patch automatically disables SMARTDRV CD-ROM caching.
 

Installation
------------

- In the directory where the MPEG Player v1.1 software was installed ("C:\VLPOWER" by default), rename CODECDRV.DLL to CODECDRV.11 and MPEGPLYR.DLL to MPEGPLYR.11.  (This makes life easier if, for some reason, you need to revert to the standard version 1.1 modules).

- Copy CODECDRV.DLL and MPEGPLYR.DLL from this floppy to the directory where the MPEG Player software was installed.

- Restart Windows
