+Please do use these tests if you do some libmpeg2 changes.
+
+* get the official suite of mpeg2 torture tests at
+http://libmpeg2.sourceforge.net/files/mpeg2dec-streams.tar.gz
+
+or using SVN :
+
+# svn co svn://svn.videolan.org/libmpeg2/streams
+
+(OK, I did some reorganization work on the archive, so it is not really the
+official suite anymore)
+
+Then,
+
+* extract this archive at the same level as your mpeg2dec directory :
+ in your working directory you should have subdirectories mpeg2dec
+ and streams.
+
+* or, extract this archive where you want, but change the first line
+ of the "tests" file to reflect that location. Do _not_ remove the
+ pound (#) sign at the beginning of the line.
+
+Now run test/regression <test> <idct>
+
+<test> is the name of the test suite you want to use. For the official
+mpeg video conformance tests, just use "tests".
+
+<idct> is the type of IDCT you are using. If your machine supports MMX,
+choose "mmx". If your machine uses the c idct, choose "c"
+
+That's it...
