%
% Plays a movie.
%
% USAGE
%  playmovies( I, [fps], [loop] )
%
% INPUTS
%  I       - MxNxTxR or MxNx1xTxR or MxNx3xTxR array (if MxNxT calls
%            playmovie)
%  fps     - [100] maximum number of frames to display per second use
%            fps==0 to introduce no pause and have the movie play as
%            fast as possible
%  loop    - [0] number of time to loop video (may be inf),
%            if neg plays video forward then backward then forward etc.
