Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi all,

Any idea where one might find a basic but working snippet for using SDL::Video?

I'd like to put together a simple interactive menu package that plays mpeg selections, but the POD is somewhat on the brief side.

Anytime I try to create the SDL::Video object, I get the message: Can't locate auto/SDL/NewSMPEGInf.al in @INC

Thanks.

    Just a guess, but did you have libsmpeg installed with libraries and headers when you built SDL? If you didn't build it, do you know if your packager enabled SMPEG support?

      From an RPM. Missed that one altogether. <slap's head>

      Thanks. :)
