function mov=videoread(fname,varargin)
%VIDEOREAD Read an video file in a mannter compatible with Matlab's
%          built-in AVIREAD function, but using a videoReader object to do
%          the work instead. 
%
%   MOV=VIDEOREAD(FNAME)
%     Read the video file FNAME into the Matlab movie structure MOV.  MOV
%     has two fields, "cdata" and "colormap".  Since all videoReader
%     plugins currently output 24-bit images in all cases, colormap will
%     always be blank.    
%
%   MOV=VIDEOREAD(FNAME,VRARGS)
%     The same as MOV=VIDEOREAD(FNAME), but VRARGS are passed to the 
%     videoReader constructor.  VRARGS should be a cell array of arguments.
%     E.g. 
%         mov = videoread('tests/numbers.wmv3.avi', {'DirectShow'});
%
%   MOV=VIDEOREAD(FNAME,INDEX)
%     Reads only the frame(s) specified by INDEX.  INDEX can be a single
%     index or an array of indices into the video stream, where the first
%     frame is  number one.  IMPORTANT NOTES: If you use videoReader
%     directly, it assumes  frames start at 0, not 1.  We use 1-indexing
%     here in VIDEOREAD to maximize  compatibility with MathWork's AVIREAD.  
%     Also, if you find yourself making several calls to VIDEOREAD to 
%     extract different portions of the file and/or if the number of 
%     frames is large, consider using videoReader directly instead of this 
%     wrapper function.
%
%   MOV=VIDEOREAD(FNAME,VRARGS,INDEX)
%     The same as MOV=VIDEOREAD(FNAME,INDEX), but VRARGS are passed to the 
%     videoReader constructor.  VRARGS should be a cell array of arguments.
