I'm on debian testing, and want to view DVDs via my dxr3 card. I tried installing the em8300 package, but it wasn't set up correctly, so I ended up grabbing the source and installing it by hand. Since I wasn't able to get the deb of em8300, I also ended up compiling and installing xine-lib and xine-ui by hand.
The dxr3 card works fine -- vga loopback sends video fine, and I can get my vga overlay up and running (I can send output from lsmod and em8300setup, if necessary, to show that installation works). When I try and run xine, however, wierd stuff happens. Half the time, it seems like xine is unable to find the spu-en/decoder on the card, and thus won't play anything and locks up. The other half, it will play the first chapter -- usually just the copyright notice -- and stops and locks up. I don't ever get to the menus, and trying to play a later chapter via the command-line always comes up as an unsupported option. Anybody have this working with debian? what did you have to do?
