``loadfile <url> [<flags> [<options>]]``

Load the given file or URL and play it. Technically, this is just a playlist

The third argument is a list of options and values which should be set
while the file is playing. It is of the form ``opt1=value1,opt2=value2,..``.
Not all options can be changed this way. Some options require a restart
of the player.
When using the client API, this can be a ``MPV_FORMAT_NODE_MAP`` (or a Lua
table), however the values themselves must be strings currently. These
options are set during playback, and restored to the previous value at end
of playback (see `Per-File Options`_).
``loadlist <url> [<flags>]``
Load the given playlist file or URL (like ``--playlist``).
