<span class="application">MPlayer</span> utilizes a complex playtree. It consists
of global options written as first, for example

</p><pre class="screen">mplayer -vfm 5</pre><p>

and options written after filenames, that apply only to the given
filename/URL/whatever, for example:

</p><pre class="screen">mplayer -vfm 5 <em class="replaceable"><code>movie1.avi</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>movie2.avi</code></em> -vfm 4</pre><p>
</p><p>
You can group filenames/URLs together using <code class="literal">{</code> and
<code class="literal">}</code>. It is useful with option <tt class="option">-loop</tt>:

</p><pre class="screen">mplayer { 1.avi -loop 2 2.avi } -loop 3</pre><p>

The above command will play files in this order: 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2.
</p><p>
Playing a file:
</p><pre class="synopsis">
<span><strong class="command">mplayer</strong></span> [<em class="replaceable"><code>options</code></em>] [<em class="replaceable"><code>path</code></em>/]<em class="replaceable"><code>filename</code></em>
</pre><p>
</p><p>
Another way to play a file:
</p><pre class="synopsis">
<span><strong class="command">mplayer</strong></span> [<em class="replaceable"><code>options</code></em>] <em class="replaceable"><code>file:///uri-escaped-path</code></em>
</pre><p>
</p><p>
Playing more files:
</p><pre class="synopsis">
<span><strong class="command">mplayer</strong></span> [<em class="replaceable"><code>default options</code></em>] [<em class="replaceable"><code>path</code></em>/]<em class="replaceable"><code>filename1</code></em> [<em class="replaceable"><code>options for filename1</code></em>] <em class="replaceable"><code>filename2</code></em> [<em class="replaceable"><code>options for filename2</code></em>] ...
</pre><p>
</p><p>
Playing VCD:
</p><pre class="synopsis">
<span><strong class="command">mplayer</strong></span> [<em class="replaceable"><code>options</code></em>] vcd://<em class="replaceable"><code>trackno</code></em> [-cdrom-device <em class="replaceable"><code>/dev/cdrom</code></em>]
</pre><p>
</p><p>

</pre><p>
</p><p>

</pre><p>
