.SH NAME
vlc, fbvlc, gvlc \- The VideoLAN Client
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B vlc
.RI [ OPTIONS ]
.RI [ PARAMETERS ]
.RI [ FILE ]...
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.B vlc
, a free MPEG2 player.
.SH OPTIONS
.B vlc
follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
options starting with two dashes (`-').
A summary of options is included below.
.TP
.B \-\-intf <module>
Specify an interface module: "gnome", "curses", "shell", for instance.
.TP
.B \-\-noaudio
Disable audio output.
.TP
.B \-\-aout <module>
Specify an audio output module: "dsp", "esd", for instance.
.TP
.B \-\-stereo, \-\-mono
Choose stereo or mono audio output
.TP
.B \-\-novideo
Disable video output.
.TP
.B \-\-vout <module>
Specify a video output module: "x11", "sdl", "fb", for instance.
.TP
.B \-\-motion <module>
Specify a module for motion compensation: "motion", "motionmmx", for instance.
.TP
.B \-\-idct <module>
Specify a module for IDCT: "idct", "idctmmx", for instance.
.TP
.B \-\-yuv <module>
Specify a YUV module: "yuv", "yuvmmx", for instance.
.TP
.B \-\-display <display>
Specify the display name.
.TP
.B \-\-width <w>, \-\-height <h>
Choose the display coordinates.
.TP
.B \-g, \-\-grayscale
Grayscale output.
.TP
.B \-\-fullscreen
Full screen output.
.TP
.B \-\-overlay
Overlay (hardware accelerated output), if available.
.TP
.B \-\-color
Color output.
.TP
.B \-\-synchro <type>
Choose a fixed synchro value instead of the internal auto-adaptative
heuristics based on CPU usage.
`I' displays only I images, `IP' displays I and P images, `IP+'
displays I and P images and every second B image, and `IPB' forces
displaying of all images.
Note that the vlc is certainly going to crash if you ask it to
display more images than your CPU can cope with.
.TP
.B vlc
opens /dev/dvd, but this behaviour may be overridden by the vlc_dvd_device
environment variable (see below).
.TP
.B \-a, \-\-dvdaudio [ ac3 | lpcm | mpeg | off ]
Choose the audio channel type. Most DVDs have AC3 audio channels, but
you can also have Linear PCM or MPEG layer 2 sound. Also, one might decide
not to activate the audio channel.
.TP
.B \-c, \-\-dvdchannel [ 0\-15 ]
Select the audio channel. Most DVDs only have one or two audio channels,
but some of them have a great number of available languages. Note that the
audio channel will also depend on the channel type.
.TP
.B \-s, \-\-dvdsubtitle [ 0\-31 ]
Select the subtitle channel, if there is one in the stream.
.TP
.B \-\-novlans
Disable VLANs support.
.TP
.B \-\-server <host>, \-\-port <port>
Choose the video server address and port.
.TP
.B \-h, \-\-help
Print help and exit.
.TP
.B \-H, \-\-longhelp
Print long help and exit.
.TP
.B \-v, \-\-version
Output version information and exit.
