 The SurePlayer project is an open source initiative founded to develop and promote a non-proprietary, standards compliant, Java-based MPEG video player.

SurePlayer 1.0 was written and released in April 23, 2001. It integrates several open-source projects to form a complete MPEG-1 audio/video player.

Please feel free to contact us for comments or suggestions, support questions, or media related issues. We are happy to discuss any facet of our ongoing work.
