1.3.2 support for xine...I guess it did, I've made no mods to any files and
it (freevo) is trying to launch xine when I select a DVD.  I actually tried
using 1.3.4, but it doesn't execute properly---hangs, so I had to install
only other version I had downloaded which was 1.3.2.  I don't have any
experience with CVS and making sense of the changelogs while not being a
'developer' is no easy task.

I'd like the dvd menu support that xine is supposed to use, but I'm getting
sick of 'fixing' each component that is necessary for freevo (already worked
alot to make mplayer work right).  I'm still facing a problem with my
capture card (BT878-based) where I'm only getting garbage in top inch or so
of picture and no real picture---that will I'm sure burn-up countless hours
researching and fixing whatever the problem is.

I wish someone would answer my original question (I've posted it twice
now)...can I simply tell freevo to use mplayer instead of xine with respect
to DVD's?  (Hope that doesn't sound ungrateful, but frustration is setting
in--sorry)
