I got it to load the mpv file but Celluloid still doesn't do what I
want.  I might add, I have yet to figure out how to set such things in
the config file either.  It seems there is no such option to put in the
file.  Since it doesn't seem to be capable of doing some fairly simple
things, I moved on.  I found QMPlay2 and it works fine except that it
doesn't close at the end of the video.  It just shows the little icon
thing and sits there.  So far, that's the only thing I haven't found a
workaround/setting/config for.  I've got everything else to work like it
should.  Dang near a drop in replacement for Gnome-player.

At this point, it seems QMPlay2 is going to be used for a while.  There
are others that I like better as far as looks go but they just don't
work the way I want and seem to lack the ability to do so.  May give
them a try later on.  I wish Celluloid worked but it seems it just isn't
there yet. 

Thanks.
