Both mplayer and xine use the "mrl" format for media files, so it
might be a good idea to follow their rules since it's fairly
straightforward and intuitive.

Why not make it a list for all files; and single unit Items would just
have one entry... I think it would be easier to just do a "for" loop
for ANY item then checking if it's a string and then doing one thing
and if it's a list doing another. 

It would make it easier for people contributing code because they'd
know... "filename" is always a list of files.
