It plays most MPEG, AVI and ASF/WMV files, supported by many native and Win32 DLL codecs. You can watch VideoCD, SVCD, DVD and even DivX movies too (and you don't need the avifile library at all!). The another big feature of mplayer is the wide range of supported output drivers. It works with X11, Xv, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev, AAlib, but you can use SDL (and this way all drivers of SDL) and some lowlevel card-specific drivers (for Matrox, 3Dfx and Radeon) too! Most of them supports software or hardware scaling, so you can enjoy movies in fullscreen. And what about the nice big antialiased shaded subtitles (7 supported types!!!) with european/ISO 8859-1,2 (hungarian, english, czech, etc), cyrillic, korean fonts, and OSD? .LP .SH "GENERAL OPTIONS" .TP .I NOTE Every "flag" option has "noflag" pair, e.g. -fs opposite is -nofs .TP .B \-gui start MPlayer with the GUI mode. You have to compile it in, for details see the documentation. .TP .B \-dvd\ titleid tell MPlayer which movies (marked with titleid) to play. For example sometimes '1' are trailers, and '2' is the real movie. .TP .B \-chapter\ chapterid specify which chapter to start playing at. Examples can be found below. .TP .B \-dvdangle\ angleid some DVD discs contain scenes that can be viewed from multiple angles. Here you can tell MPlayer which angles to use. Examples can be found below. .TP .B \-vo\ <driver>[:<device>] select video output driver and optinaly device. "device" is valid with SDL and GGI too, it means sub-driver then (for example: -vo sdl:aalib). you can get the list of available drivers executing .I mplayer -vo help .TP .B \-ao\ <driver>[:<device>] select audio output driver and optinaly device. "device" is valid with SDL too, it means sub-driver then (for example: -vo sdl:esd). If using OSS, you can specify which sound device to use like this : -ao oss:/dev/dsp1 (replaces the old -dsp option) you can get the list of available drivers executing .I mplayer -ao help .TP .B \-vcd\ track play video cd track from device instead of plain file .TP .B \-nosound don't play sound .TP .B \-fs fullscreen playing (centers movie, and makes black bands around it) .TP .B \-vm try to change to a different video mode. dga2, x11 (XF86VidMode) and sdl output drivers support it. .TP .B \-zoom use software scaling, where available (use with -nofs). svga, x11, vesa output drivers support it. .TP .B \-flip flip image (useful for example for old Indeo codecs). Supported only(?) by the 'sdl' and 'x11' outputs. .TP .B \-x\ x scale image to x width [if driver suppports!] .TP .B \-y\ y scale image to y height .TP .B \-xy\ factor scale image by <factor> .TP .B \-pp\ quality apply postprocess filter on decoded image. You need a STRONG CPU in order to use this! The supported formats and settings are: MPEG 1/2 0 (none), 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63 OpenDivX 0 (none), 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63 DivX4 0 (none) - 60 DivX 0 (none), 1, 2, 3, 4 .TP .B \-autoq\ quality dynamically changes the level of postprocess, depending on spare CPU time available. Uses the same value ranges as -pp . The number you specify will be the maximum level used. Usually you can use some big number. You don't have to (and don't) use together with -pp ! .TP .B \-ffactor\ number resample alphamap of the font. Can be: 0 plain white fonts 0.75 very narrow black outline [default] 1 narrow black outline 10 bold black outline .TP .B \-sub\ file use/display this subtitle file .TP .B \-subfps\ rate specify frame/sec rate of subtitle file (ONLY for frame-based SUB files, i.e. NOT MicroDVD format!) (default: the same as the movie) .TP .B \-subdelay\ sec delays subtitles by <sec> seconds. Can be negative. .TP .B \-osdlevel\ level specifies which mode the OSD should start in (0 : none, 1 : seek, 2: seek+timer) (default = 2) .TP .B \-lircconf\ configfile specifies a configfile for LIRC (see http://www.lirc.org) if you don't like the default ~/.lircrc .TP .B \-v enable verbose output (more -v means more verbose) .TP .B \-quiet display less output, status messages. .TP .B \-benchmark used in combination with -nosound and -vo null for benchmarking. .TP .B \-skin skin directory load skin from this directory (WITHOUT path name!). For example '-skin fittyfene' tries these : /usr/local/share/mplayer/Skin/fittyfene ~/.mplayer/Skin/fittyfene .TP .B \-aspect ratio set aspect ratio of movies. It's autodetected on MPEG files, and can't be autodetected on AVI files. Examples: -aspect 4:3 or -aspect 1.3333 -aspect 16:9 or -aspect 1.7777 (has -noaspect pair) .TP .B \-monitoraspect ratio set aspect ratio of your screen. Examples: -monitoraspect 4:3 or 1.3333 -monitoraspect 16:9 or 1.7777 .IP .SH "ADVANCED OPTIONS" .TP .I NOTE These options can help you solve your particular problem.. Also, see the documentation ! .TP .B \-vc <name> force usage of a specific video codec, according to its name in codecs.conf, for example : -vc divx use VFW DivX codec -vc divxds use DirectShow DivX codec -vc ffdivx use libavcodec's DivX codec -vc ffmpeg12 use libavcodec's MPEG1/2 codec -vc divx4 use ProjectMayo's DivX codec See -vc help for FULL list ! .TP .B \-ac <name> force usage of a specific audio codec, according to its name in codecs.conf, for example : -ac mp3 use libmp3 MP3 codec -ac mp3acm use l3codeca.acm MP3 codec -ac ac3 use AC3 codec -ac hwac3 enable Hardware AC3 passthrough (see documentation) -ac vorbis use libvorbis -ac ffmp3 use ffmpeg's MP3 decoder (SLOW) See -ac help for FULL list ! .TP .B \-vfm <1-5> force usage of a specific codec FAMILY, and FALLBACK to default if failed. For example: -vfm 2 use VFW (Win32) codecs -vfm 3 use OpenDivX/DivX4 codec (YV12) (same as -vc odivx but fallback) -vfm 4 use DirectShow (Win32) codecs -vfm 5 use libavcodec codecs -vfm 7 use DivX4 codec (YUY2) (same as -vc divx4 but fallback) -vfm 10 use XAnim codecs See -vc help for FULL list ! NOTE : if libdivxdecore support was compiled in, then type 3 and 7 now contains just the same DivX4 codec, but different APIs to reach it. For difference between them and when to use which, check the DivX4 section in the documentation. .TP .B \-afm <1-5> force usage of a specific audio format. For example: -afm 1 use libmp3 (mp2/mp3, but not mp1) -afm 2 suppose raw PCM audio -afm 3 use libac3 -afm 4 use a matching Win32 codec -afm 5 use aLaw/uLaw driver -afm 10 use libvorbis -afm 11 use ffmpeg's MP3 decoder (even mp1) See -ac help for FULL list ! .TP .B \-sb\ position seek to byte position .TP .B \-ss\ time seek to given time position. For example : -ss 56 -ss 01:10:00 .TP .B \-bpp\ depth use different color depth than autodetect. Not all -vo drivers support it (fbdev, dga2, svga, vesa). .TP .B \-abs\ bytes sound card audio buffer size (in bytes, default: measuring) .TP .B \-delay\ secs audio delay in seconds (may be +/- float value) .TP .B \-nobps don't use avg. byte/sec value for A-V sync (AVI) .TP .B \-aid\ id select audio channel [MPG: 0-31 AVI: 1-99 ASF: 0-127 VOB: 128-...] .TP .B \-vid\ id select video channel [MPG: 0-15 AVI: -- ] .TP .B \-fps\ value force frame rate (if value is wrong in the header) .TP .B \-mc\ seconds/5frame maximum sync correction per 5 frames (in seconds) .TP .B \-ni force usage of non-interleaved AVI parser .TP .B \-include configfile specify config file to be parsed after the default .TP .B \-z\ <0-8> specifies compression level for PNG output 0 : no compression 8 : max compression .TP .B \-idx rebuilds INDEX of the AVI. Useful with broken downloads, or badly created AVIs. .TP .B \-forceidx force rebuilding of INDEX. Useful for testing, or AVIs with bad indexes. .TP .B \-nodshow disables usage of DirectShow video codecs .TP .B \-noxv disable XVideo hardware acceleration (with SDL only!) .TP .B \-forcexv force using XVideo (SDL!) .TP .B \-dumpaudio writes audio stream of the file to ./stream.dump (mostly usable with mpeg/ac3) .TP .B \-noframedrop no frame dropping : every frame is played, audio and video may be out of sync (default) .TP .B \-framedrop frame dropping : decode all frames, video may skip .TP .B \-nodouble disable doublebuffering (default). Currently this is only honoured by the Xv and the DGA driver. With the DGA driver this also disables OSD support but yields some speed gain. .TP .B \-double enable doublebuffering. Currently this is only honoured by the Xv and the DGA driver. .TP .B \-dvdkey key key to decrypt stream encrypted with CSS. For example : -dvdkey F169072699 (this is NOT for DVD playing! For DVD use the -dvd option!) .TP .B \-stereo mode select type of MPEG1 stereo output. Stereo 0 Left channel 1 Right channel 2 .TP .B \-srate Hz specifies Hz to playback audio on. Has effect on playback speed! .TP .B \-config configfile specifies where to search for config file .TP .B \-display name specify the hostname and display number of the X server you want to display on. For example : -display xtest.localdomain:0 .TP .B \-unicode tells MPlayer to handle the subtitle file as UNICODE. Contrary: -nounicode .TP .B \-utf8 tells MPlayer to handle the subtitle file as UTF8. .TP .B \-fsmode\ mode This option workarounds some problems when using specific windowmanagers and fullscreen mode. If you experience fullscreen problems, try changing this value between 0 and 7. -fsmode 0 new method -fsmode 1 ICCCWM patch (for KDE2/icewm) -fsmode 2 old method -fsmode 3 ICCCWM patch plus Motif method .TP .B \-frames\ number MPlayer plays <number> frames, then quits. .TP .B \-fb\ device Specifies the framebuffer device to use. By default it uses /dev/fb0 . Only valid for the fbdev driver. .TP .B \-fbmode\ modename Change videomode to the one that is labelled as <modename> in /etc/fb.modes . Only valid for the fbdev driver. .TP .I NOTE VESA framebuffer doesn't support mode changing. .TP .B \-fbmodeconfig\ filename Use this config file instead of the default /etc/fb.modes . Only valid for the fbdev driver. .TP .B \-subcp\ codepage If your system supports iconv(3), you can use this option to specify codepage of the subtitle. Examples: -subcp latin2 -subcp cp1250 .TP .B \-dumpmpsub Convert the given subtitle (specified with the -sub switch) to MPlayer's subtitle format, MPsub. Dumps a dump.mpsub file to current directory. .TP .B \-screenw\ pixels If you use an output driver which can't know the resolution of the screen (mga/fbdev/x11 and/or TVout) this is where you can specify the horizontal resolution. .TP .B \-screenh\ pixels If you use an output driver which can't know the resolution of the screen (mga/fbdev/x11 and/or TVout) this is where you can specify the vertical resolution. .TP .B \-cache\ kbytes See it below, in the ALPHA/BETA CODE section. .IP .SH "ALPHA/BETA CODE" .TP .I NOTE These are included in this manpage just for completeness! These may or may NOT work! If you don't know what are these, you DON'T need these! In either case, double-check the documentation ! .TP .B \-br\ rate used with '-vo odivx' . Specifies the bitrate to encode OpenDivx at (in bits! e.g: 780000). .TP .I NOTE You CAN'T encode sound, only video right now! Don't ask for it, it's on the TODO list. .TP .B \-encode\ file used with '-vo odivx' . Specifies the output OpenDivX file. Won't overwrite. .TP .B \-dumpvideo dump video stream to ./stream.dump (only with MPEG-PS) (not very usable) .TP .B \-sid specify DVD subtitle (?) (IT _WILL NOT_ DISPLAY! RTFM!) .TP .B \-cache\ kbytes _If you compiled with cache support_ , use this option to enable using it. Also specify the amount of memory to use, in kbytes. .IP .SH KEYBOARD CONTROL .TP .I NOTE These keys may/may not work, depending on your video output driver. .TP <- or -> seek backward/forward 10 seconds up or down seek backward/forward 1 minute pgup/pgdown seek backward/forward 10 minutes p or SPACE pause movie (press any key) q or ESC stop playing and quit program + or - adjust audio delay by +/- 0.1 second / or * decrease/increase volume o toggle OSD: none / seek / seek+timer m toggle using master/pcm volume z or x adjust subtitle delay by +/- 0.1 second (the following keys are valid only when using DirectShow DivX codec) 1 or 2 adjust contrast 3 or 4 adjust brightness 5 or 6 adjust hue 7 or 8 adjust saturation .IP .SH FILES AND DIRECTORIES .TP .I CONFIG FILES Settings are stored system-wide in the /etc/mplayer.conf file, and per-user in $HOME/.mplayer/config. The directory $HOME/.mplayer and the 'config' are created if doesn't exist. .TP .I FONTS Fonts are searched in $HOME/.mplayer/font. There must be a font.desc file, and files with .RAW extension. .TP .I SUBTITLE FILES MPlayer currently supports 9 subtitle formats : MicroDVD, SubRip, unnamed, SAMI (smi), vplayer, RealMedia RT, ssa (Sub Station Alpha), AQT, and our own: MPsub. Sub files are searched in this priority : (for example /mnt/cdrom/movie.avi) /mnt/cdrom/movie.sub (utf/UTF/sub/SUB/srt/SRT/smi/SMI/rt/RT/txt/TXT/ssa/SSA) $HOME/.mplayer/sub/movie.sub (utf/UTF/sub/SUB/srt/SRT/smi/SMI/rt/RT/txt/TXT/ssa/SSA) $HOME/.mplayer/default.sub .IP .SH "EXAMPLES" .B Quickstart DVD playing mplayer -dvd 1 .TP .B Multiangle DVD playing mplayer -dvd 1 -dvdangle 2 .TP .B Playing from a different DVD device mplayer -dvd 1 /dev/dvd2 .TP .B Stream from HTTP mplayer http://mplayer.hq/example.avi .TP .B Convert subtitle to MPsub (to ./dump.mpsub) mplayer dummy.avi -sub source.sub -dumpmpsub .LP .SH BUGS Probably.
