Well, at least you can say you've seen it work :-) ...

I'm curious now ..

All of the people I've seen (that I recall) that have/had Xine working seem to have been overseas from me. Is there anyone here in the US that has Xine (mdk, plf RPMs, or even compiled .. I couldn't get the blasted thing to install after compiling) working? I'm starting to wonder if it's a locality thing now. Hey, I know it's far-fetched, but it's my turn to try grasping at straws :-)

Is this something that may have changed from the past? Even before when
I tried to use Xine (and I couldn't get it working then either), when I
would install the d4d or the d5d package, it showed up in the UI as an
option. I'm in the same boat with this, all I get to choose from is VCD
and DVB. Even using the MRL link, I can't get it to recognize a DVD,
much les s play it. The only way I was able to get DVD to show up in
the UI was to install the dvdnav package, but all it would do is play
the intro of a DVD (garbled and mangled), and then show the DVD menu
(all garbled and mangled). The only truly successful program I've been
able to get working with any DVD is ogle. Even then, I wish more of the
UI buttons worked (why no stop button??). I'm not giving up on Xine
yet, and would love to get it working.


The xine package out of the box played the dvd movie disk I tried as a test, so I thought all was well. Then I tried a more modern film, and found that it didn't. At that point I went along to plf and downloaded all the plugins I could find, hoping that they would solve the problem. I think that was a big mistake, since it doesn't work at all now.
