- The rest of options (if any) will be ignored and the application will
exit. It will return 0 on success or -1 on failure.
- -actions
<action_list>
- <action_list> is a list of actions separated by spaces. The actions
will be executed just after loading the file (if any) in the same order as
input. For switchable actions you can pass true or false as
parameter.
- Example: smplayer -actions.br "fullscreen compact
true"
- Quotes are necessary in case you pass more than one action.

- -disable-server
- Disables the server used to communicate with other instances. This also
disables the possibility to use a single instance.

(e.g. dvd://1), an Internet stream (e.g. mms://....) or a local playlist
