I've compiled Xine perfectly on my Linux Mandrake 7.2 machine. Its a PII
400 with 256Mb of RAM. The compile was very easy [standard instructions]
and despite some warning about ALSO, it works fine [albeit in OSS mode].
I'm using software decoding on my PC, and performance is pretty terrible
though - I guess you'd probvably need a PIII 800 or similarly grunty
Athlon [I'd take the the Athlon :) ] to decode tat the standard twenty
something frames per second, depending on whether you're a PAL or NTSC
person.
