+3.3) Broken Sword notes
+---- ------------------
+Broken Sword 1 and 2 both come with in-game cutscenes compressed using 
+RAD Game Tools legacy Smacker(tm) format. As RAD is unwilling to open
+the older legacy versions of this format to us, and have requested we not
+reverse engineer it, Revolution Software has kindly allowed us to provide
+re-encoded Broken Sword cutscenes for download on our website.
+
+These cutscenes are provided in MPEG2 format with OGG Vorbis audio.
+Viewing these cutscenes thus requires a version of ScummVM compiled 
+with both libmpeg2 (preferably 0.4.0 or greater) and libVorbis support.
+
+The cutscenes should be placed in the main game data directory. Note that
+currently this requires either copying the game to harddisk or reburning
+customised versions of the game CDs.
