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

	      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.

	      Don't show the splash window during startup.

       -a

	      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

       -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.
