The Player control displays and manages the playback of a mash, including overrides for its volume and fps attributes. Typically several other controls bind to Player properties like play, location or volume to create a complete interface, but it's okay to simply display the Player alone too (probably with autostart defined).

The displayed mash will be scaled up or down to fit the space defined for the Player. If their aspect ratios do not match, the mash will be centered against the player background. The same applies when the Player goes into fullscreen mode, thereby resize to fit the display.

By default, the mash that's displayed in the Player is the first one encountered in the initial configuration. This is because the default source attribute points to an auto generated source that holds these tags. It's also possible to explicitly define this source or specify another.
