 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.

Does xine work without freevo ?

And for freevo you need at least xine-ui 0.9.22 and grab latest xine-lib

From personal experiences i think you better want to try out 1.3.4.
remove the cache files before starting the new version in
/var/cache/freevo.

 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).

Well aren't we all sometimes but no need to express that here,
devel-people are spending a lot of there spare time to make this working for you.
Not every specific hardware can be tested and from a software standpoint most
things have to be very recent.

 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.

Again does this work without freevo.


 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)

plugin.activate('video.mplayer')
plugin.remove('video.xine')

for mplayer

plugin.activate('video.xine')

for xine.  (default IIRC)

 I've already got Mplayer working with DVD's just fine.  Is there a setting
 where I can tell Freevo to use Mplayer to play movies instead of xine?

 I'm running RH8.0, Freevo 1.3.2 (1.3.4 wouldn't cooperate at all!), xine
 0.9.13, and Mplayer 0.90.

Freevo 1.3.2 already had xine support? I can't remember but the
Changelog told otherwise. Freevo 1.3.2 has the problem that it 
opens the device without closing it after usage.
