.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B mplayer
|
|
is a movie player for LINUX (runs on many other Unices and non\-x86 CPUs, see
|
|
the documentation).
|
|
It plays most MPEG/\:VOB, AVI, ASF/\:WMA/\:WMV, RM, QT/\:MOV/\:MP4, OGG/\:OGM,
|
|
VIVO, FLI, NuppelVideo, yuv4mpeg, FILM and RoQ files, supported by many
|
|
native, XAnim, and Win32 DLL codecs.
|
|
You can watch VideoCD, SVCD, DVD, 3ivx, DivX\ 3/\:4/\:5 and even WMV movies,
|
|
too (without using the avifile library).
|
|
.PP
|
|
Another great feature of MPlayer is the wide range of supported output
|
|
drivers.
|
|
It works with X11, XV, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev, AAlib, DirectFB, but you
|
|
can also use GGI, SDL (and this way 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, DXR2 and DXR3/\:Hollywood+.
|
|
Most of them support software or hardware scaling, so you can enjoy movies in
|
|
fullscreen.
|
|
.PP
|
|
MPlayer has an onscreen display (OSD) for status information, nice big
|
|
antialiased shaded subtitles and visual feedback for keyboard controls.
|
|
European/\:ISO 8859-1,2 (Hungarian, English, Czech, etc), Cyrillic and Korean
|
|
fonts are supported along with 11 subtitle formats (MicroDVD, SubRip,
|
|
SubViewer, Sami, VPlayer, RT, SSA, AQTitle, JACOsub, PJS and our own: MPsub) and
|
|
DVD subtitles (SPU streams, VobSub and Closed Captions).
|
|
.PP
|
|
.B mencoder
|
|
(MPlayer's Movie Encoder) is a simple movie encoder, designed to encode
|
|
MPlayer-playable movies (see above) to other MPlayer-playable formats (see
|
|
below).
|
|
It encodes to DivX4, XviD, one of the libavcodec codecs and PCM/\:MP3/\:VBRMP3
|
|
audio in 1, 2 or 3\ passes.
|
|
Furthermore it has stream copying abilities, a powerful plugin system (crop,
|
|
expand, flip, postprocess, rotate, scale, noise, rgb/\:yuv conversion) and
|
|
more.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.B gmplayer
|
|
is MPlayer with a graphical user interface.
|
|
It has the same options as MPlayer.
|

.SH "KEYBOARD CONTROL"
|
|
MPlayer has a fully configurable, command driven, control layer
|
|
which allow you to control MPlayer using keyboard, mouse, joystick
|
|
or remote control (using lirc).
|
|
.br
|
|
The default configuration file for the input system is
|
|
~/.mplayer/\:input.conf but it can be overriden
|
|
using the \-input conf option.
|
|
.br
|
|
These keys may/\:may not work, depending on your video output driver.

.SH "USAGE"
|
|
Every 'flag' option has a 'noflag' counterpart, e.g.\& the opposite of the
|
|
\-fs option is \-nofs.
|
|
.PP
|
|
You can put all of the options in a configuration file 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' and disabled by setting them to 'no' or '0'.
|
|
Even suboptions can be specified in this way.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I EXAMPLE:
|
|
.br
|
|
# Use Matrox driver by default.
|
|
.br
|
|
vo=xmga
|
|
.br
|
|
# I love practicing handstands while watching videos.
|
|
.br
|
|
flip=yes
|
|
.br
|
|
# Decode/\:encode multiple files from png,
|
|
.br
|
|
# start with mf://filemask
|
|
.br

|

# Eerie negative images are cool.

|
|
.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 or in the same directory as the file.

|
|
.B \-include <configuration\ file>

|
|
.B \-quiet \ \
|
|
With this option the status line (i.e. A: 0.7 V: 0.6 A-V: 0.068 ...)
|
|
will not be displayed.
|
|
Particularly useful on slow terminals or broken ones that do not properly
|
|
handle carriage return (i.e. \\r).
|
|

|

.TP
|
|
.B \-autoq <quality> (use with \-vf [s]pp)
|
|
Dynamically changes the level of postprocessing depending on 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 to use this.
|
|
.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 used.
|
|
An uneven video frame rate 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.
|
|
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 \-colorkey <number>
|
|
Changes the colorkey to an RGB value of your choice.
|
|
0x000000 is black and 0xffffff is white.
|
|
Only supported by the cvidix, fbdev, svga, vesa, winvidix, xmga, xvidix and
|
|
xover video out drivers.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-nocolorkey
|
|
Disables colorkeying.
|
|
Only supported by the cvidix, fbdev, svga, vesa, winvidix, xmga, xvidix and
|
|
xover video out drivers.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-edl <filename>
|
|
Enables edit decision list (EDL) actions during playback.
|
|
Video will be skipped over and audio will be muted and unmuted according to
|
|
the entries in the given file.
|
|
See DOCS/HTML/en/edl.html for details on how to use this.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-edlout <filename>
|
|
Creates a new file and writes edit decision list (EDL) records to that file.
|
|
During playback, when the user hits 'i', an entry to skip over the last two
|
|
seconds of playback will be written to the file.
|
|
This provides a starting point from which the user can fine-tune EDL entries
|
|
later.
|
|
See DOCS/HTML/en/edl.html for details.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-enqueue (GUI only)
|
|
Enqueue files given on the command line in the playlist instead of playing them
|
|
immediately.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-fixed-vo (BETA CODE!)
|
|
Enforces a fixed video system for multiple files (one (un)initialisation for
|
|
all files).
|
|
Therefore only one window will be opened for all files.
|
|
Currently the following drivers are fixed-vo compliant: gl2, mga, svga, x11,
|
|
xmga, xv and xvidix.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-framedrop (also see \-hardframedrop)
|
|
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.
|

.B \-hardframedrop
|
|
More intense frame dropping (breaks decoding).
|
|
Leads to image distortion!
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-identify
|
|
Show file parameters in easy parsable format.
|
|
The wrapper script TOOLS/midentify suppresses the other MPlayer output and
|
|
(hopefully) shellescapes the filenames.
|
|
.TP
|
|

Change the number of playback channels, defaults to '2' if not specified.

If the number of output channels is bigger than the number of input channels

empty channels are inserted (unless mixing from mono to stereo, then the mono

|
channel is repeated in both output channels).
|
|
If the number of output channels is smaller than the number of input channels,

results depend on the audio decoder (\-afm).

MPlayer asks the decoder to decode the audio into as many channels as

|
specified.

Now it's up to the decoder to fulfill the requirement.

If the decoder outputs more channels than requested, the exceeding channels

are truncated.

This is usually only important when playing videos with AC3 audio (like DVDs).

In that case liba52 does the decoding by default and correctly downmixes the

Force rebuilding of INDEX and output to a separate file specified by the

Currently this only works with AVI files.

Although you can use MEncoder to fix files without indexes, the AVI

|
container format is limited to indexing files up to 2GB in size.
|

It is however possible to store the index in a separate file and use it later
|

with \-loadidx, which is faster than rebuilding the index (with \-idx or
|
|
\-forceidx) each time the movie is opened.

(This is a limitation of the AVI format, and although there exists an
|
|
extension to index beyond 2GB, MPlayer doesn't yet support this extension.)

After the index file is created, MPlayer will begin to play the video.

off a TV capture card, for example), you can specify \-frames 0 to

prevent MPlayer from playing the video after generating the index.

gamma values are 1.0.

The parameters are given as floating point values.
|

Parameters rg, gg, bg are the independent gamma values for the Red, Green

The weight parameter can be used to reduce the effect of a high gamma value on

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

white.

A value of 0.0 turns the gamma correction all the way down while 1.0 leaves it

Defaults are gamma=1.0, contrast=1.0, brightness=0.0, saturation=1.0,

Useful for output to low-resolution display devices when hardware downscaling
|
|
is poor quality or is not available.
|
|
Can also be used as a primitive luma-only deinterlacer with very low cpu
|
|
usage.
|
|
By default, halfpack averages pairs of lines when downsampling.
|
|
The optional parameter f can be 0 to only use even lines, or 1 to only use
|
|
odd lines.

Any other value for f gives the default (averaging) behavior.

.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
|
|
the chroma lines in their proper locations, so that in any given
|
|
scanline, the luma and chroma data both come from the same field.
|
|
The optional argument selects the sampling mode.
|
|
By default, linear interpolation (mode 1) is used.
|
|
Mode 0 uses nearest-neighbor sampling, which is fast but incorrect.

.TP
|
|
.B decimate[=max:hi:lo:frac]
|
|
Drops frames that don't differ greatly from the previous frame in

|
|
The argument max (if positive) sets the maximum number of consecutive
|
|
frames which can be dropped, or (if negative) the minimum interval
|
|
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.
|
|
The main use of this filter is for very-low-bitrate encoding (e.g.\&

streaming over dialup modem), but it could in theory be used for

fixing movies that were inverse-telecined incorrectly.

.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.

.B pullup\
|
|
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, but it is still under development.
|
|
No configuration options are available yet.
|
|
As the underlying pulldown reversal engine is designed to take
|
|
advantage of the new features in MPlayer G2, the current
|
|
implementation in G1 is meant to serve mainly as a testbed.
|
|
.I NOTE:
|
|
Presently pullup lacks any way to cap the output framerate, so
|
|
during 30 fps progressive sequences or stills, it will output more
|
|
than 24 fps, meaning you'll have trouble if you use it with mencoder
|
|
\-ofps 23.976.
|
|
.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, libmpeg2 must be used for decoding (not
|
|
ffmpeg2!), and 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 /.

.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

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 frame rate.
|
|
.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.

|
Default is n=8.

.B softpulldown
|

This filter works only correct with MEncoder and acts on the MPEG2 flags
|
|
used for soft 3:2 pulldown (soft telecine).
|
|
If you want to use the ivtc or detc filter on movies that are partly soft
|
|
telecined, inserting this filter before them should make them more reliable.
|
|
Currently only libmpeg2 exports the needed flags.

If used on material that does not set them or if using ffmpeg12, the

filter does nothing.

Both fps options are essential!

.B framestep=I|[i]step
|
|
Renders only every nth frame or every Intra (key) frame.
|
|
|
|
If you call the filter with I (uppercase) as the parameter, then ONLY
|
|
keyframes are rendered.
|
|
For DVDs it generally means one in every 15/12 frames (IBBPBBPBBPBBPBB),
|
|
for AVI it means every scene change or every keyint value (see \-lavcopts
|
|
keyint= value if you use MEncoder to encode the video).
|
|
|
|
When a key frame is found, an 'I!' string followed by a newline character is
|
|
printed, leaving the current line of mplayer/mencoder output on the screen,
|
|
because it contains the time (in seconds) and frame number of the keyframe
|
|
(You can use this information to split the AVI.).
|
|
|
|
If you call the filter with a numeric parameter 'step' then only one in
|
|
every 'step' frames is rendered.
|
|
|
|
If you put an 'i' (lowercase) before the number then an I! is printed
|
|
(like the I parameter).

Not recommended (much larger file, little quality difference and weird side

Recommended for normal mpeg4/mpeg1video encoding (default).

Recommended for h263(p)/msmpeg4. The reason for preferring 3 over 2 is that

2 could lead to overflows (this will be fixed for h263(p) by changing the

quantizer per MB in the future, msmpeg4 cannot be fixed as it does not support
