GXINE(1)               DragonFly General Commands Manual              GXINE(1)


NAME

       gxine - a GTK/GNOME frontend to the xine video player


SYNOPSIS

       gxine [options] [files or MRLs]


DESCRIPTION

       gxine plays MPEG system (audio and video) streams, MPEG elementary
       streams (e.g. .mp3, .mpa or .mpv files), MPEG transport streams, AVI
       files, ASF files, Quicktime files, (S)VCDs and DVDs - anything which
       xine-lib can handle.

       Typical usage looks like
              gxine some.mpg
              gxine -f dvd://
              gxine dvd://home/user/dvd/my.iso

       Some directories and file names are not treated as ordinary files. They
       are:

       DVD    A directory containing a DVD filesystem structure; or a UDF
              filesystem image, identified by file name ("*.iso").

       VCD    A cue file, identified by file name.

       You can override this by using file://full/path/to/file.


OPTIONS

       -A audio_driver
       --audio audio_driver
              Select which libxine audio driver to use. This setting is not
              permanent, but it does prevent selection of other drivers via
              the preferences window.

       -V video_driver
       --video video_driver
              Select which libxine video driver to use. This setting is not
              permanent, but it does prevent selection of other drivers via
              the preferences window.

       -S
       --no-splash
              Don't show the splash window during startup.

       -a
       --add
              Don't clear the playlist before adding any MRLs; start playing
              the first new MRL.

       -e
       --enqueue
              Don't clear the playlist before adding any MRLs; don't start
              playing the first new MRL.

       -f
       --full-screen
              Start in full-screen mode.

       -c Javascript
       --command Javascript
              Javascript command(s) to be executed immediately after starting
              up.

       -C KEY=VALUE
       --configure KEY=VALUE
              Set configuration item KEY to VALUE, e.g. "-c
              gui.window_size=100%".

       -v
       --verbose
              Verbose mode: output information about plugins, the video
              stream, commands executed etc. Repeat for more verbosity.


FEATURES

       There are a couple of features which aren't immediately obvious: in
       full-screen mode, you can right-click to get access to the menus, or
       middle-click to show or hide the player controls.
