Hi,

I can help you with two:

-prefer-ipv4 / -prefer-ipv6 - These tell MPlayer to connect to a servers
using the IPv4 or IPv6 protocols first. If one protocol fails to work it
will try the other automatically.

This option applies to HTTP, MMS, ASF, NetStream and RealRTSP streaming,
although it has only been tested with HTTP and MMS.


-ipv4-only-proxy - This tells mplayer that your HTTP proxy can only
connect to IPv4 addresses. With this option, if the hostname cannot be
resolved to an IPv4 address, MPlayer will try to connect to the server
directly, rather than the proxy.

Cheers,
Dave
