MPlayer Command line switches confusion Nathan9222
 Hello, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction on how to send more than one file to MPlayer so it can play them through command line switches. I have seen the following but I try to use it in a similar way and it will say cannot find file and then list the files i tried to play.... mplayer [default options] [path/]filename1 [options for filename1] filename2 [options for filename2] I have successfully played one file via command line but I have had no luck with multiple files. I tried something similar to this... mplayer C:\Documents and Settings\Nathan\Desktop\Example.mpg C:\Documents and Settings\Nathan\My Documents\Example2.mpg But no luck. So if anyone could offer some help with this I would really appreciate it, ive been tryin to get this to work for a little project I have been doing that i might release here but this stopped my progress. Thanks ( categories: )

Spaces
The shell uses spaces to separate words. You need to use quotes so that the shell doesn't treat the spaces specially.

i tried this but i still get
i tried this but i still get an error message that the file couldnt be found, and it seems to be joining the two file paths i am trying to play and make it seem like its just one. Ill try different things but idk why this isnt working.
Edit: NVM i just found out that this is due to a problem in NSISPortable not passing the correct parameters to mplayer.exe, cause if you send them directly to mplayer it seems to work just fine but any other way it doesnt work. Thanks for your help
