I just downloaded all the xine rpms I could get from plf.zarb.org. Then I tried xine. I seemto have installed a new copy of the ui, and this one only offers dvb and vcd - no dvd, so now I can't play anything. Do I need to uninstall everything I have on xine and start again from the install discs? If so, how can I avoid selecting the one that does the damage, since the plf packages will be listed amongs the mdk ones?My setup is Mandrake 8.2 with Mandrake and PLF sources for xine, and
that works. If you have xine-dvdnav installed from the Mandrake CDs
you could try "xine -pq -s DVD dvdnav://" from the command line. (The
-pq is optional.) Since xine is a multimedia player it needs some
kind of clue about the medium you are accessing. That is where MRLs
come in - Media Resource Locator(?). The gui does have a
comprehensive setup panel but as far as I can see does not provide an
option for specifying DVD play by default - dvb and vcd must be built
in defaults. I always attach the above command to a GNOME panel icon.
Maybe you can do the same in KDE or modify a menu entry. You probably
don't need to uninstall anything either.
Does that help?
