Playvideo is a video player designed specifically for svgalib, making it compatible with AVI, Quicktime, MPEG-1, and MPEG-2 formats. Although not all codecs are supported, most of them have been ported from xanim. In fact, the source code for vidplay.c contains many portions from xanim, and as a result, this program is subject to xanim's copyright terms (which can be found in README.xanim).
It's worth noting that Playvideo can be used for non-commercial purposes without any required licenses. However, if you plan to use it commercially, you will need a license from Mark Podlipec. It's also important to keep in mind that modified versions of the software must include Mark's copyright information in order to be in compliance.
Overall, Playvideo is a solid video player for svgalib, with support for a variety of popular formats. While it does have some limitations when it comes to codec support, this is largely mitigated by its use of xanim source code. So if you're in need of a video player that works with svgalib, it's definitely worth giving Playvideo a try.
