The language of MRLs is designed to be a true subset -of the language of URIs as given in RFC2396. A type 2 grammar for the -language of MRLs is given in EBNF below. - -Semantically, MRLs consist of two distinct parts that are evaluated by -different components of the xine architecture. The first part, -derivable from the symbol <input_source> in the given grammar, is -completely handed to the input plugins, with input plugins signaling -if they can handle the MRL. -The second part, derivable from <stream_setup> and delimited from the -first by a crosshatch ('#') contains parameters that modify the -initialization and playback behaviour of the stream to which the MRL -is passed. The possible parameters are mentioned in the manpage to -xine-ui. - -The following definition should be regarded as a guideline only. -Of course any given input plugin only understands a subset of all -possible MRLs. On the other hand, invalid MRLs according to this -definition might be understood for convenience reasons. -Some user awareness is required at this point. - -EBNF grammar for MRLs: - -<mrl> ::= <input_source>[#<stream_setup>] -<input_source> ::= (<absolute_mrl>|<relative_mrl>) -<absolute_mrl> ::= <input>:(<net_path>|<abs_path>)[?<query>] -<relative_mrl> ::= (<abs_path>|<rel_path>) -<net_path> ::= //<authority>[<abs_path>] -<abs_path> ::= /<path_segments> -<rel_path> ::= <rel_segment>[<abs_path>] -<rel_segment> ::= <rel_char>{<rel_char>} -<rel_char> ::= (<unreserved>|<escaped>|;|@|&|=|+|$|,) -<input> ::= <alpha>{(<alpha>|<digit>|+|-|.)} -<authority> ::= (<server>|<reg_name>) -<server> ::= [[<userinfo>@]<host>[:<port>]] -<userinfo> ::= {(<unreserved>|<escaped>|;|:|&|=|+|$|,)} -<host> ::= (<hostname>|<ipv4_address>) -<hostname> ::= {<domainlabel>.}<toplabel>[.] -<domainlabel> ::= (<alphanum>|<alphanum>{(<alphanum>|-)}<alphanum>) -<toplabel> ::= (<alpha>|<alpha>{(<alphanum>|-)}<alphanum>) -<ipv4_address> ::= <digit>{<digit>}.<digit>{<digit>}.<digit>{<digit>}.<digit>{<digit>} -<port> ::= {<digit>} -<reg_name> ::= <reg_char>{<reg_char>} -<reg_char> ::= (<unreserved>|<escaped>|;|:|@|&|=|+|$|,) -<path_segments> ::= <segment>{/<segment>} -<segment> ::= {<path_char>}{;<param>} -<param> ::= {<path_char>} -<path_char> ::= (<unreserved>|<escaped>|:|@|&|=|+|$|,) -<query> ::= {<mrl_char>} -<stream_setup> ::= <stream_option>;{<stream_option>} -<stream_option> ::= (<configoption>|<engine_option>|novideo|noaudio|nospu) -<configoption> ::= <configentry>:<configvalue> -<configentry> ::= <unreserved>{<unreserved>} -<configvalue> ::= <conf_char>{<conf_char>} -<engine_option> ::= <unreserved>{<unreserved>}:<stream_char>{<stream_char>} -<stream_char> ::= (<unreserved>|<escaped>|:|@|&|=|+|$|,) -<mrl_char> ::= (<reserved>|<unreserved>|<escaped>) -<reserved> ::= (;|/|?|:|@|&|=|+|$|,) -<unreserved> ::= (<alphanum>|<mark>) -<mark> ::= (-|_|.|!|~|*|'|(|)) -<escaped> ::= %<hex><hex> -<hex> ::= (<digit>|A|B|C|D|E|F|a|b|c|d|e|f) -<alphanum> ::= (<alpha>|<digit>) -<alpha> ::= (<lowalpha>|<upalpha>) -<lowalpha> ::= (a|b|c|d|e|f|g|h|i|j|k|l|m|n|o|p|q|r|s|t|u|v|w|x|y|z) -<upalpha> ::= (A|B|C|D|E|F|G|H|I|J|K|L|M|N|O|P|Q|R|S|T|U|V|W|X|Y|Z) -<digit> ::= (0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9) |
