+.
+.SH BESKRIVNING
+.B mplayer
+är en filmspelare, ursprungligen för Linux, men kan köras på de flesta platformar (se dokumentationen). Den spelare mestadels MPEG/\:VOB, AVI, ASF/\:WMA/\:WMV, RM, QT/\:MOV/\:MP4, OGG/\:OGM, MKV, VIVO, FLI, NuppelVideo, yuv4mpeg, FILM samt RoQ filer, är stödd av många nativa och binära codec. Du kan kolla VideoCD, SVCD, DVD, 3ivx, DivX\ 3/\:4/\:5 samt även WMV filmer.
+.PP
+MPlayer stödjer en uppsjö av video- och audio-ut-drivrutiner. Den funkar med X11, Xv, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev, AAlib, libcaca, DirectFB, Quartz, men du kan även använda GGI, SDL (pch alla deras drivrutiner), VESA (på verenda VESA-kompatibla kort, även utan X11), vissa låglevelade kortspecifika kortsdrivrutiner (för Matrox, 3Dfx samt ATI) och vissa hårdvaru-MPEG-avkodarkort, såsom Siemens DVB, DXR2 samt DXR3/\:Hollywood+. De flesta stödjer mjukvaro och hårdvaruskalning, så du kan kolla på filmer i fullskärmsmode
+.PP
+MPlayer har "onscreen display" (OSD) för statusinformation, snygga stora antialiserade skuggade textningstexter samt visuellt återgivning av tagentbordskontroller. Europeiska/\:ISO 8859-1,2 , kyrilliska, samt koreanska typsnitt är stött jämnsides med 12 textningsformat (MicroDVD, SubRip, OGM, SubViewer, Sami, VPlayer, RT, SSA, AQTitle, JACOsub, PJS samt vår egna: MPsub) och DVD-textning (SPU-ström, VOBsub och Closed Captions).
+.PP
+.B mencoder
+(MPlayer's Movie Encoder) är en enkel filmkodare, framtagen till att koda MPlayer-spelbara filmer (se ovan) till andra MPlayer-spelbara format (se nedan). Den kodar till DivX4, XviD, någon av libavcodecs codec, samt PCM/\:MP3/\:VBRMP3-audio i 1, 2 eller 3 pass. Även så har den strömkopieringsförmåga, ett kraftfullt filtersystem (crop, expand, flip, postprocess, rotate, scale, noise, rgb/\:yuv conversion) och mera.
+.PP
+.B gmplayer
+är MPlayer med ett grafiskt användargränssnitt (GUI). Det har samma alternativ som MPlayer.
+.PP
+Användningsexempel för snabbstart är lokaliserade i slutet på denna manual.

+.SH "ANVÄNDNING"
+Varje 'flag'-argument har en 'noflag'-motsvarighet, d.v.s.\& motsatsen till \-fs är \-nofs
+.PP
+Om ett argument är markerad som (XXX endast), kommer det endast att fungera i samarbete med XXX eller om XXX är inkompilerat.
+.PP
+Du kan lägga alla argument i en konfigurationsfil vilken kommer att bli inläst varje gång MPlayer körs. Den systemvida konfigurationsfilen 'mplayer.conf' är i din konfigurationskatalog (d.v.s.\& /etc/mplayer eller /usr/local/etc/mplayer), den användarspecifika är lokaliserad i '~.mplayer/config'. Användarspecifika inställningar skriver över systemvida inställningar, och argument angivna på kommandoraden skriver över bägge. Syntaxen i konfigurationsfilen är 'option=<value>', allting efter ett '#' är antaget som en kommentar. Inställningar som fungerar utan värden kan bli aktiverade genom att sätta dem till 'yes', '1' eller 'true', och kan bli avaktiverade genom att sätta dem till 'no', '0' eller 'false'. Även underargument kan bli specifierade på detta vis.
+.PP
+.I EXEMPEL:
+.nf
+# Använd Matrox-drivrutin per standard.
+vo=xmga
+# Jag älskar att stå på händerna när jag kollar på video
+flip=yes
+# Decode/\:encode multipla filer från png,
+# starta med mf://filemask
+mf=type=png:fps=25
+# Eerie-negativa bilder är coola. \" Eerie?
+vf=eq2=1.0:-0.8
+.fi
+.PP
+Du kan även skriva filspecifika konfigurationsfiler. Om du önskar att ha en konfigurationsfil för en fil kallad 'movie.avi', skapa då en fil kallad 'movie.avi.conf' med de filspecifika inställningar i sig och placera den i ~/.mplayer eller i samma katalog som filen.

+.
+.TP
+.B \-autoq <kvalité> (används med \-vf [s]pp)
+Dynamiskt ändra nivån av afterproccessering beroende på tillgängliga CPU-cyklar. Värdet du specifierar kommer att bli den maximalt använda nivån, vanligtvis så kan du specifiera stora värden. Du måste använda \-vf [s]pp utan paramertar för att få detta att funka.
+.
+.TP
+.B \-autosync <faktor>
+Gradvist ställa in A/V-synkning baserat på audiofördröjningsmätning. On du anger \-autosync\ 0 (standard), kommer bildramsanpassningen att vara baserad endast av audiofördröjningsmätning. Om du anger \-autosync\ 1 så kommer liknande att inträffa, förutom att A/V-korrektionsalgoritmen kommer att ändras något. Ett udda videoframerate i en film vilken spelar bra med \-nosound kan ofta bli hjälot med att sätta denna till ett värde större än 1. Ju större värde, ju närmare anpassningen kommer att vara \-nosound. Testa \-autosync\ 30 för att plana ut problem med ljuddrivrutiner vilka inte implementerar en perfekt audiofördröjningsmätning. Med detta värde, om stora A/V-synkningsfel inträffar, kommer det endast att ta 1 eller 2\ sekunder att plana ut. Denna fördröjning i reaktionstid till plötslig A/V-fel torde varaa den enda sidoeffekt med att ha denna inställd aktiverad, för atta ljuddrivrutiner.
+.
+.TP
+.B \-benchmark
+Skriver ut viss statistik ang. CPU-användning samt tappade bildrutor vid slutet att uppspelning. Använd i kombination med \-nosound samt \-vo null för benchmarkning av endast videocodec.
+.br
+.I NOTERA:
+Med denna inställning så kommer MPlayer att ignorera bildramsduration vid spelande av endast video (du kan tänka detta som oändlig bps)
+.

+gamma values are 1.0.
+The parameters are given as floating point values.

+bright image areas, e.g.\& keep them from getting overamplified and just plain
+white.

+Can also be used as a primitive luma-only deinterlacer with very low CPU
+usage.
+By default, halfpack averages pairs of lines when downsampling.

+.TP
+.B ilpack[=mode]
+When interlaced video is stored in YUV 4:2:0 formats, chroma
+interlacing does not line up properly due to vertical downsampling of
+the chroma channels.
+This filter packs the planar 4:2:0 data into YUY2 (4:2:2) format with

+.B decimate[=max:hi:lo:frac]
+Drops frames that do not differ greatly from the previous frame in

+between dropped frames.
+A frame is a candidate for dropping if no 8x8 region differs by more
+than a threshold of hi, and if not more than frac portion (1 meaning
+the whole image) differs by more than a threshold of lo.
+Values of hi and lo are for 8x8 pixel blocks and represent actual
+pixel value differences, so a threshold of 64 corresponds to 1 unit of
+difference for each pixel, or the same spread out differently over the
+block.

+.B detc[=var1=value2:var2=value2:...]
+Attempts to reverse the 'telecine' process to recover a clean,

+This was the first and most primitive inverse telecine filter to be
+added to MPlayer/\:MEncoder.
+It works by latching onto the telecine 3:2 pattern and following it as
+long as possible.
+This makes it suitable for perfectly-telecined material, even in the
+presence of a fair degree of noise, but it will fail in the presence
+of complex post-telecine edits.
+Development on this filter is no longer taking place, as ivtc, pullup,
+and filmdint are better for most applications.
+The following arguments (see syntax above) may be used to control
+detc's behavior:
+.RSs
+.IPs dr\ \ \ 
+Set the frame dropping mode.
+0 (default) means don't drop frames to maintain fixed output framerate.

+0\-2 are the three clean progressive frames; 3 and 4 are the two
+interlaced frames.
+The default, -1, means 'not in telecine sequence'.

+.B ivtc[=1]
+Experimental 'stateless' inverse telecine filter.
+Rather than trying to lock on to a pattern like the detc filter does,
+ivtc makes its decisions independently for each frame.
+This will give much better results for material that has undergone
+heavy editing after telecine was applied, but as a result it is not as
+forgiving of noisy input, for example TV capture.
+The optional parameter (ivtc=1) corresponds to the dr=1 option for the
+detc filter, and should be used with MEncoder but not with MPlayer.
+As with detc, you must specify the correct output framerate (\-ofps
+23.976) when using MEncoder.
+Further development on ivtc has stopped, as the pullup and filmdint
+filters appear to be much more accurate.
+.
+.TP
+.B pullup[=jl:jr:jt:jb:sb:mp]\ 
+Third-generation pulldown reversal (inverse telecine) filter,
+capable of handling mixed hard-telecine, 24 fps progressive, and 30
+fps progressive content.
+The pullup filter is designed to be much more robust than detc or
+ivtc, by taking advantage of future context in making its decisions.
+Like ivtc, pullup is stateless in the sense that it does not lock onto
+a pattern to follow, but it instead looks forward to the following
+fields in order to identify matches and rebuild progressive frames.
+It is still under development, but believed to be quite accurate.
+The jl, jr, jt, and jb options set the amount of "junk" to ignore at
+the left, right, top, and bottom of the image, respectively.
+Left/\:right are in units of 8 pixels, while top/\:bottom are in units of
+2 lines.
+The default is 8 pixels on each side.
+Setting the sb (strict breaks) option to 1 will reduce the chances of
+pullup generating an occasional mismatched frame, but it may also
+cause an excessive number of frames to be dropped during high motion
+sequences.
+Conversely, setting it to -1 will make pullup match fields more
+easily.
+This may help processing of video where there is slight blurring
+between the fields, but may also cause there to be interlaced frames
+in the output.
+The mp (metric plane) option may be set to 1 or 2 to use a chroma
+plane instead of the luma plane for doing pullup's computations.
+This may improve accuracy on very clean source material, but more
+likely will decrease accuracy, especially if there is chroma noise
+(rainbow effect) or any grayscale video.
+The main purpose of setting mp to a chroma plane is to reduce CPU load
+and make pullup usable in realtime on slow machines.
+.br
+.I NOTE:
+Always follow pullup with the softskip filter when encoding to ensure
+that pullup is able to see each frame.
+Failure to do so will lead to incorrect output and will usually crash,
+due to design limitations in the codec/\:filter layer.
+.
+.TP
+.B filmdint[=options]
+Inverse telecine filter, similar to the pullup filter above.
+It is designed to handle any pulldown pattern, including mixed soft and
+hard telecine and limited support for movies that are slowed down or sped
+up from their original framerate for TV.
+Only the luma plane is used to find the frame breaks.
+If a field has no match, it is deinterlaced with simple linear
+approximation.
+If the source is MPEG-2, this must be the first filter to allow
+access to the field-flags set by the MPEG-2 decoder.
+Depending on the source MPEG, you may be fine ignoring this advice, as
+long as you do not see lots of "Bottom-first field" warnings.
+With no options it does normal inverse telecine, and should be used
+together with mencoder \-fps 29.97 \-ofps 23.976.
+When this filter is used with mplayer, it will result in an uneven
+framerate during playback, but it is still generally better than using
+pp=lb or no deinterlacing at all.
+Multiple options can be specified separated by /.
+.RSs
+.IPs crop=w:h:x:y
+Just like the crop filter, but faster, and works on mixed hard and soft
+telecined content as well as when y is not a multiple of 4.
+If x or y would require cropping fractional pixels from the chroma
+planes, the crop area is extended.
+This usually means that x and y must be even.
+.IPs io=ifps:ofps
+For each ifps input frames the filter will output ofps frames.
+The ratio of ifps/\:ofps should match the \-fps/\-ofps ratio.
+This could be used to filter movies that are broadcast on TV at a frame
+rate different from their original framerate.
+.IPs luma_only=n
+If n is nonzero, the chroma plane is copied unchanged.
+This is useful for YV12 sampled TV, which discards one of the chroma
+fields.
+.IPs mmx2=n
+On x86, if n=1, use MMX2 optimized functions, if n=2, use 3DNow!
+optimized functions, othewise, use plain C.
+If this option is not specified, MMX2 and 3DNow! are auto-detected, use
+this option to override auto-detection.
+.IPs fast=n
+The larger n will speed up the filter at the expense of accuracy.
+The default value is n=3.
+If n is odd, a frame immediately following a frame marked with the
+REPEAT_FIRST_FIELD MPEG flag is assumed to be progressive, thus filter
+will not spend any time on soft-telecined MPEG-2 content.
+This is the only effect of this flag if MMX2 or 3DNow! is available.
+Without MMX2 and 3DNow, if n=0 or 1, the same calculations will be used
+as with n=2 or 3.
+If n=2 or 3, the number of luma levels used to find the frame breaks is
+reduced from 256 to 128, which results in a faster filter without losing
+much accuracy.
+If n=4 or 5, a faster, but much less accurate metric will be used to
+find the frame breaks, which is more likely to misdetect high vertical
+detail as interlaced content.
+.IPs verbose=n
+If n is nonzero, print the detailed metrics for each frame.
+Useful for debugging.
+.IPs dint_thres=n
+Deinterlace threshold.
+Used during de-interlacing of unmatched frames.
+Larger value means less deinterlacing, use n=256 to completely turn off
+deinterlacing.
+Default is n=8.

+.B softpulldown
+This filter works only correct with MEncoder and acts on the MPEG2 flags

+.B divtc[=options]
+Inverse telecine for deinterlaced video.
+If 3:2-pulldown telecined video has lost one of the fields or is deinterlaced
+using a method that keeps one field and interpolates the other, the result is
+a juddering video that has every fourth frame duplicated.
+This filter is intended to find and drop those duplicates and restore the
+original film framerate.
+When using this filter, you must specify \-ofps that is 4/\:5 of the fps of the
+input file (23.976 if the input is 29.97fps).
+The options are:
+.RSs
+.IPs pass=1|2
+Use two-pass mode.
+This produces best results.
+Pass 1 analyzes the video and writes the results to a log file.
+Pass 2 then reads this log file and uses the information to do the actual work.
+Note that these passes do NOT correspond to pass 1 and 2 of the encoding
+process.
+In order to use divtc two-pass with two-pass video encoding, you must perform
+three passes: first divtc pass 1 and encoder pass 1, then divtc pass 2 and
+encoder pass 1, and finally divtc pass 2 and encoder pass 2.
+.IPs file=filename
+Set the 2-pass log filename (default: "framediff.log").
+.IPs threshold=value
+Set the minimum strength the telecine pattern must have for the filter to
+believe in it (default: 0.5).
+This is used to avoid recognizing false pattern from the parts of the video
+that are very dark or very still.
+.IPs window=numframes
+Set the number of past frames to look at when searching for pattern
+(default: 30).
+Longer window improves the reliability of the pattern search, but shorter
+window improves the reaction time to the changes in the telecine phase.
+This only affects the one-pass mode.
+The two-pass mode currently uses fixed window that extends to both future
+and past.
+.IPs phase=0|1|2|3|4
+Sets the initial telecine phase for one-pass mode (default: 0).
+The two-pass mode can see the future, so it is able to use the correct
+phase from the beginning, but one-pass mode can only guess.
+It catches the correct phase when it finds it, but this option can be used
+to fix the possible juddering at the beginning.
+The first pass of the two-pass mode also uses this, so if you save the output
+from the first pass, you get constant phase result.
+.IPs deghost=value
+Set the deghosting threshold (0\-255 for one-pass mode, -255\-255 for two-pass
+mode, default 0).
+If nonzero, deghosting mode is used.
+This is for video that has been deinterlaced by blending the fields
+together instead of dropping one of the fields.
+Deghosting amplifies any compression artifacts in the blended frames, so the
+parameter value is used as a threshold to exclude those pixels from
+deghosting that differ from the previous frame less than specified value.
+If two-pass mode is used, then negative value can be used to make the
+filter analyze the whole video in the beginning of pass-2 to determine
+whether it needs deghosting or not and then select either zero or the
+absolute value of the parameter.
+Specify this option for pass-2, it makes no difference on pass-1.
