"If a file-specific" - missing "a" here.

"In addition" and "also" might be argued to be redundant, though I'm not
sure that that would be correct. Even if both are retained, there should
probably be a comma after "addition".

The two parts of this sentence aren't parallel. Either "MPlayer first
tries to load ... and then tries to load" or "MPlayer tries to first
load ... and then load" or similar would be more appropriate; I'd
probably prefer the former, myself.
