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.

permanent, but it does prevent selection of other drivers via
the preferences window.

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.
