All,

In Mandrake 8.0, xmovie was superb. I get an error when trying to open 
mpeg 2 (SVCD) files -no supported codecs. It also reports the following 
error when trying to open quicktime (.mov) files:

Trying to load external codec quicktime_codec_SVQ1.so
Can't load the codec
quicktime_codec_SVQ1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory

I've searched the RPMs for the aforementioned library but to no avail. I 
presume the lack of support for codecs will be sorted in the final 
release? Or will there be a better replacement for xmovie?

Mplayer does not seem to be on the rpms, so that leaves poor old xanim 
to hold the fort. I think fixing xmovie is the right way.

Ed-T.
