-------------------------------------------------------------------------- -.\" Description -.\" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -. -.SH DESCRIPTION -.B mplayer -is a movie player for Linux (runs on many other platforms and CPU -architectures, see the documentation). -It plays most MPEG/\:VOB, AVI, ASF/\:WMA/\:WMV, RM, QT/\:MOV/\:MP4, Ogg/\:OGM, -MKV, VIVO, FLI, NuppelVideo, yuv4mpeg, FILM and RoQ files, supported by many -native and binary codecs. -You can watch VCD, SVCD, DVD, Blu\-ray, 3ivx, DivX 3/4/5, WMV and even H.264 movies, -too. -.PP -MPlayer supports a wide range of video and audio output drivers. -It works with X11, Xv, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev, AAlib, libcaca, DirectFB, -Quartz, Mac OS X CoreVideo, but you can also use GGI, SDL (and all their drivers), -VESA (on every VESA-compatible card, even without X11), some low-level -card-specific drivers (for Matrox, 3dfx and ATI) and some hardware MPEG decoder -boards, such as the Siemens DVB, Hauppauge PVR (IVTV) and DXR3/\:Hollywood+. -Most of them support software or hardware scaling, so you can enjoy movies in -fullscreen mode. -.PP -MPlayer has an onscreen display (OSD) for status information, nice big -antialiased shaded subtitles and visual feedback for keyboard controls. -European/\:ISO8859-1,2 (Hungarian, English, Czech, etc), Cyrillic and Korean -fonts are supported along with 12 subtitle formats (MicroDVD, SubRip, OGM, -SubViewer, Sami, VPlayer, RT, SSA, AQTitle, JACOsub, PJS and our own: MPsub) and -DVD subtitles (SPU streams, VOBsub and Closed Captions). -.PP -Usage examples to get you started quickly can be found at the end -of this man page. -.PP -.B Also see the HTML documentation! -. -. -.\"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------- -.\" Usage -.\" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -. -.SH "USAGE" -Every 'flag'

compiled in. -.PP -.I NOTE: -The suboption parser (used for example for \-ao pcm suboptions) supports -a special kind of string-escaping intended for use with external GUIs. -.br -It has the following format: -.br -%n%string_of_length_n -.br -.I EXAMPLES: -.br -mplayer \-ao pcm:file=%10%C:test.wav test.avi -.br -Or in a script: -.br -mplayer \-ao pcm:file=%`expr length "$NAME"`%"$NAME" test.avi -.PP -. -.\" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -.\" Configuration files -.\" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -. -.SH "CONFIGURATION FILES" -You can put all of the options in configuration files which will be read -every time MPlayer is run. -The system-wide configuration file 'mplayer.conf' is in your configuration -directory (e.g.\& /etc/\:mplayer or /usr/\:local/\:etc/\:mplayer), the user -specific one is '~/\:.mplayer/\:config'. -User specific options override system-wide options and options given on the -command line override either. -The syntax of the configuration files is 'option=<value>', everything after -a '#' is considered a comment. -Options that work without values can be enabled by setting them to 'yes' -or '1' or 'true' and disabled by setting them to 'no' or '0' or 'false'. -Even suboptions can be specified in this way. -.PP -You can also write file-specific configuration files. -If you wish to have a configuration file for a file called 'movie.avi', create a file -named 'movie.avi.conf' with the file-specific options in it and put it in -~/.mplayer/. -You can also put the configuration file in the same directory as the file to -be played, as long as you give the \-use\-filedir\-conf option (either on the -command line or in your global config file). -If a file-specific configuration file is found in the same directory, no -file-specific configuration is loaded from ~/.mplayer. -In addition, the \-use\-filedir\-conf option enables directory-specific -configuration files. -For this, MPlayer first tries to load a mplayer.conf from the same directory as -the file played and then tries to load any file-specific configuration. -.PP -.I EXAMPLE MPLAYER CONFIGURATION

"PLAYER OPTIONS" -. -.TP -.B \-autoq <quality> (use with \-vf [s]pp) -Dynamically changes the level of postprocessing depending on the available spare -CPU time. -The number you specify will be the maximum level used. -Usually you can use some big number. -You have to use \-vf [s]pp without parameters in order for this to work. -. -.TP -.B \-autosync <factor> -Gradually adjusts the A/V sync based on audio delay measurements. -Specifying \-autosync 0, the default, will cause frame timing to be based -entirely on audio delay measurements. -Specifying \-autosync 1 will do the same, but will subtly change the A/V -correction algorithm. -An uneven video framerate in a movie which plays fine with \-nosound can -often be helped by setting this to an integer value greater than 1. -The higher the value, the closer the timing will be to \-nosound. -Try \-autosync 30 to smooth out problems with sound drivers which do -not implement a perfect audio delay measurement. -With this value, if large A/V sync offsets occur, they will only take about -1 or 2 seconds to settle out. -This delay in reaction time to sudden A/V offsets should be the only -side-effect of turning this option on, for all sound drivers. -. -.TP -.B \-benchmark -Prints some statistics on CPU usage and dropped frames at the end of playback. -Use in combination with \-nosound and \-vo null for benchmarking only the -video codec. -.br -.I NOTE: -With this option MPlayer will also ignore frame duration when playing -only video (you can think of that as infinite fps). -. -.TP -.B \-chapter\-merge\-threshold <number> -Threshold for merging almost consecutive ordered chapter parts -in milliseconds (default: 100). -Some Matroska files with ordered chapters have inaccurate chapter -end timestamps, causing a small gap between the end of one chapter and -the start of the next one when they should match. -If the end of one playback part is less than the given threshold away -from the start of the next one then keep playing video normally over the -chapter change instead of doing a seek. -. -.TP -.B \-colorkey <number> -Changes the colorkey to an RGB value of your choice. -0x000000 is black and 0xffffff is white. -Only supported by the fbdev, svga, vesa, xmga, -xover, xv (see \-vo xv:ck) and directx video output drivers. -. -.TP -.B \-nocolorkey -Disables colorkeying. -Only supported by the fbdev, svga, vesa, xmga, -xover, xv (see \-vo xv:ck) and directx video output drivers. -. -.TP -.B \-correct\-pts, \-nocorrect\-pts -Switches MPlayer to a mode where timestamps for video frames -are calculated differently and video filters which add new frames or -modify timestamps of existing ones are supported. -Now enabled automatically for most common file formats. -The more accurate timestamps can be visible for example when playing -subtitles timed to scene changes with the \-ass option. -Without \-correct\-pts the subtitle timing will typically be off by some frames. -This option does not work correctly with some demuxers and codecs. -. -.TP -.B \-crash\-debug (DEBUG CODE) -Automatically attaches gdb upon crash or SIGTRAP. -Support must be compiled in by configuring with \-\-enable\-crash\-debug. -. -.TP -.B \-doubleclick\-time -Time in milliseconds to recognize two consecutive button presses as -a double-click (default: 300). -Set to 0 to let your windowing system decide what a double-click is -(\-vo directx only). -. -.TP -.B \-edlout <filename> -Creates a new file and writes edit decision list (EDL) records to it. -During playback, the user hits 'i' to mark the start or end of a skip block. -This provides a starting point from which the user can fine-tune EDL entries -later. -See http://www.mplayerhq.hu/\:DOCS/\:HTML/\:en/\:edl.html for details. -. -.TP -.B \-fixed\-vo, \-nofixed\-vo -\-fixed\-vo enforces a fixed video system for multiple files (one -(un)initialization for all files). -Therefore only one window will be opened for all files. -Now enabled by default, use \-nofixed\-vo to disable and create a new window -whenever the video stream changes. -Some of the older drivers may not be fixed-vo compliant. -. -.TP -.B \-framedrop (also see \-hardframedrop, experimental without \-nocorrect\-pts) -Skip displaying some frames to maintain A/V sync on slow systems. -Video filters are not applied to such frames. -For B-frames even decoding is skipped completely. -. -.TP -.B \-h, \-help, \-\-help -Show short summary of options. -. -.TP -.B \-hardframedrop (experimental without \-nocorrect\-pts) -More intense frame dropping (breaks decoding). -Leads to image distortion! -Note that especially the libmpeg2 decoder may crash with this, -so consider using "\-vc ffmpeg12,". -. -.TP -.B \-heartbeat\-cmd -Command that is executed every 30 seconds during playback via system() - -i.e.\& using the shell. -.sp 1 -.I NOTE: -MPlayer uses this command without any checking, it is your responsibility -to ensure it does not cause security problems (e.g.\& make sure to use full -paths if "." is in your path like on Windows). -It also only works when playing video (i.e.\& not with \-novideo but works with \-vo null). -.sp 1 -This can be "misused" to disable screensavers that do not support the proper -X API (also see \-stop\-xscreensaver). -If you think this is too complicated, ask the author of the screensaver -program to support the proper X APIs. -.sp 1 -.I EXAMPLE for xscreensaver: -mplayer \-heartbeat\-cmd "xscreensaver\-command \-deactivate" file -.sp 1 -.I EXAMPLE for GNOME screensaver: -mplayer \-heartbeat\-cmd "gnome\-screensaver\-command \-p" file -.RE -.PD 1 -. -.TP -.B \-hr\-seek off|absolute|always -Select when to use precise seeks that are not limited to keyframes. -Such seeks require decoding video from the previous keyframe up to the target -position and so can take some time depending on decoding performance. -For some video formats precise seeks are disabled. This option selects the -default choice to use for seeks; it's possible to explicitly override that -default in the definition of key bindings and in slave mode commands. -.PD 0 -.RSs -.IPs off -Never use precise seeks. -.IPs absolute -Use precise seeks if the seek is to an absolute position in the file, -such as a chapter seek, but not for relative seeks like the default -behavior of arrow keys (default). -.IPs always -Use precise seeks whenever possible. -.RE -.PD 1 -. -.TP -.B \-identify -Shorthand for \-msglevel identify=4. -Show file parameters in an easily parseable format. -Also prints more detailed information about subtitle and audio -track languages and IDs. -In some cases you can get more information by using \-msglevel identify=6. -For example, for a DVD or Blu\-ray it will list the chapters and time length -of each title, as well as a disk ID. -Combine this with \-frames 0 to suppress all video output. -The wrapper script TOOLS/\:midentify.sh suppresses the other MPlayer output and -(hopefully) shellescapes the filenames. -. -.TP -.B \-idle (also see \-slave) -Makes MPlayer wait idly instead of quitting when there is no file to play. -Mostly useful in slave mode where MPlayer can be controlled -through input commands. -. -.TP -.B \-input <commands> -This option can be used to configure certain parts of the input system. -Paths are relative to
