Otherwise, how do I override the default freevo behavior to use xine? Removing the xine and fbxine lines from freevo.conf doesn't change its behavior. Also, XINE_VO_DEV is redefined in freevo_config.py, so setting it in local_conf.py doesn't do anything useful. The other thing is that currently, TV viewing and playback of recorded movies uses mplayer, and playback of dvd uses xine. Shouldn't this be consistent (either use mplayer exclusively, else xine + ???)? T.C. ---- Wan Tat Chee (Lecturer) School of Computer Science, Univ. of Science Malaysia, 11800 USM, Penang, Malaysia.
