NAME
gxine - a GTK/GNOME frontend to the xine video playerSYNOPSIS
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 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 (lq*.isorq).
- VCD
- A cue file, identified by file name.
You can override this by using file://full/path/to/file.
