Introduction
Opie Player 2 (aka Opie Media Player) is a media player application for Opie based on the xine engine.

Selecting files
Opie Media Player will automatically search for audio and video files upon starting, and make them available for selection on the Audio and Video tabs respectively. If the file you wish to play is not listed, you can re-scan for files using the appropriate choices from the File menu (eg. if you just inserted a memory card containing media files).

To play media that is not automatically searched, you will need to add it to the current playlist. Use the File...Add File option (for files) or File...Add URL (for remote media, eg. a ShoutCast stream).

Once you're ready to play, just hit the Play button.

Playlists
If you wish to create a sequence of music tracks or videos, you can create a playlist. Creating a playlist is as easy as selecting a file to add and tapping the (+) icon. To create playlists of all files quickly you can use the Add all... options from the File menu.

Playlists can be played in the listed order (use the arrow buttons to reorder the items) or in a random order using the Random setting.

Playlists can be saved for later use using File...Save Playlist and loaded using the Lists tab.

Controls
Opie Media Player presents a different set of controls when playing, depending on whether you are playing video or audio.
