Hello,

        Don't know exactly why, but my DVD player on my laptop  is reading DVD's 
again.  So... I downloaded xine 5.1 pre-compiled from 
http://skyblade.homeip.net/xine/XINE-0.5.1/i686.RPMs

        The instructions say to use with Mandrake 8.0 to do the following:

> ld --whole-archive -shared -o /usr/X11R6/lib/libXv.so.1 
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXv.a
> rpm -Uvh xine-lib-xv-*.rpm --nodeps
> ldconfig

        Before doing the ld command, xine would find Xv, and the frame rate was 
good, but after 10-15 seconds, the computer would crash.  Figuring that maybe 
i should read the directions, I re-installed everything.  Problem is, now it 
doesn't find Xv, so while it doesn't crash, the frame rate is like 3-4 frames 
per second.

200 frames delivered, 117 frames skipped, 1 frames discarded
200 frames delivered, 118 frames skipped, 0 frames discarded
200 frames delivered, 122 frames skipped, 0 frames discarded
200 frames delivered, 121 frames skipped, 0 frames discarded
200 frames delivered, 130 frames skipped, 1 frames discarded
200 frames delivered, 126 frames skipped, 1 frames discarded

ANYWAY - is there anyone using xine 5.1 that would like to correspond off 
list?  I'd love to get this working properly.  A substantial improvement most 
ways over xine 4.3.

V.
