Set file descriptors to use for external communications. x is used by the player to send commands to the plugin, y is used by the plugin to send commands to the standalone player.

-C file, --cookie-file file

Set cookiefile path. Cookiefile contains HTTP cookies to send to the server. Primary use for this switch is for the NPAPI plugin to pass received HTTP cookies to the standalone player.

--max-advances num

Exit after specified number of frame advances.

--fullscreen

Start in fullscreen mode.

--hide-menubar

--screenshot list

Set a list of frame advances to be saved as screenshots. The list must be comma-separated. Valid values are integers and the phrase "last". If "last" is specified, the final frame before exit is saved. Invalid values are ignored. Frame numbers apply to the sequence of frames as the SWF is executed, not the frame sequence defined in the SWF. Use in combination with --screenshot-file to specify output filename.

--screenshot-file file

Specify the output pattern for screenshot filenames. The token %f in a pattern will be replaced with a frame identifier. If you specify multiple frames and do not use %f, the file will be overwritten for each screenshot. If this option is not specified but screenshots are requested, a default filename will be used.
