The Movie Player

MPlayer is a movie player for GNU/Linux.

MPlayer plays most MPEG, VOB, AVI, Ogg/OGM, VIVO, ASF/WMA/WMV, QT/MOV/MP4, FLI, RM, NuppelVideo, yuv4mpeg, FILM, RoQ, PVA files, supported by many native, XAnim, RealPlayer, and Win32 DLL codecs. You can watch VideoCD, SVCD, DVD, 3ivx, RealMedia, and DivX movies too.

Another big feature of MPlayer is the wide range of supported output drivers. It works with X11, Xv, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev, DirectFB, but also SDL (and this way all its drivers) and some lowlevel card-specific drivers (for Matrox, 3Dfx and Radeon, Mach64, Permedia3) Most of them supports software or hardware scaling, so you can enjoy movies in fullscreen. MPlayer supports also displaying through some hardware MPEG decoder boards, such as the DVB and DXR3/Hollywood+.

NOTE: the .tar.gz distributed with Debian does not contain all of the upstream code. Read README.Debian and copyright for details.
