+objects (Adobe U3D & PRC), as well as video and sound files or streams in the
+popular MP4, FLV and MP3 formats into PDF documents with Acrobat-9/X
+compatibility.  Playback of multimedia files uses the built-in Flash Player of
+Adobe Reader and does, therefore, not depend on external plug-ins.  Flash Player
+supports the efficient H.264 codec for video compression.
+
+The package is based on the RichMedia Annotation, an Adobe addition to the PDF
+specification.  It replaces the now obsolete @code{movie15} package.")
