While multiplexed streams can be played back with the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, de-multiplexing of these streams is not supported.

The MPEG-2 Playback Component can play back both elementary audio and video streams, as well as multiplexed program streams.

The MPEG-2 Playback Component can play back MPEG-2 files on non-encrypted DVDs. Professionally produced, commercial DVDs (such as Hollywood movies) are usually encrypted with special anti-piracy software, called Content Scramble System (CSS). In order to view these DVDs, decryption software is required and is included in DVD players. But decryption software is not included in QuickTime or the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component.

A new version of the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component is now available for Mac OS X users.

No, QuickTime Pro is not necessary for playback of MPEG-2 content with the MPEG-2 Playback Component. You need only QuickTime 6 Player or QuickTime 7 Player and the MPEG-2 Playback Component to view MPEG-2 content. However, if you wish to transcode MPEG-2 video content into other formats, QuickTime Pro or an application built upon the QuickTime export architecture is necessary.

There are a number of MPEG-2 file types that the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component can play back, including .mpg, .mpeg, .vob, .vro, .m2v, .m2a, and .m2s files.

No, MPEG-2 files containing AC3 audio cannot be played back with the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component.

The QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component supports the playback of MPEG-2 files (.mpg, .mpeg, .vob, .vro, .m2v, .m2a, and .m2s) that contain MPEG audio layers I or II. The MPEG-2 Playback Component does not support audio playback for MPEG-2 files containing PCM, DTS or AC3 audio.

Yes, the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component combined with QuickTime Pro will allow the transcode of MPEG-2 video to other formats, whether that video originates in an elementary video stream or in a multiplexed stream. However, the audio that is interleaved with the video in a multiplexed stream cannot be transcoded to other formats. Transcoding is supported for video only.

If you are experiencing problems with playback performance such as performances skipping or re-buffering in the middle of a stream, check the following. Upgrade your player to the latest version of Windows Media Player (WMP for Macintosh). The latest version of Windows Media Player drastically reduces the buffering time between tracks and re-buffering during playback. Check the amount of RAM in your computer.

A multiplex or ensemble can be thought of as simply a number of stations that are grouped together, to make it efficient for them to be transmitted digitally. However, there is a practical limit to the size of this group - and this is important as it means one DAB digital radio multiplex cannot carry more than about ten radio stations in total (although there is capacity for data services and such like, which take up much less room on a multiplex).

All Karaoke discs (CDG, VCD and Karaoke DVD) are made in either a multiplex or non-multiplex format. Multiplex discs, have vocal demos for each song so that you can choose to listen to the song with or without the vocals. Non-multiplex discs provide only one version of the song, without the vocals.
