RE: [newbie] Xine - update
I think that's just the version of the VCD specifications. FYI: *ver 1.0: Karaoke CD specification, MPEG-1 data in tracks *ver 1.1: Video CD: as 1.0 but chapter marks and multi-volume album facilities added *ver 2.0: Video CD: addition of stills, generic menus, playlists, closed caption text. Xine should have no problems viewing it. I've recently burnt my own VCDs using Nero on Windows, it does them as VCD2.0, both a DVD player and Windows media player played it so Xine shouldn't have any problems at all!

There used to be one with the old Mandrake setup, 0.9.13, but the 0.9.17 from plf just has config2, and the directory structure seems to be different. I can't find xine-lib, so maybe it isn't installed. Anyway, it looks as though I'm in deep water, and nice as it would be, I have to wonder if it's worth it.

Just want to say thanks to Pilaga, Jamie and Stephen, whose patient help has finally got xine playing every dvd I own, including now the two Chinese vcds. It turned out to be the /etc/ld.so.conf which was incomplete. I had added the plugins/1.0.0 directory, but not the two subdirectories of it. As soon as I did that everything works.

Before doing this, remember: If you haven't just forgotten to install a recent xine-lib (or xine-ui) then you probably have upgraded from an older version and some of the old files are still around, being in the way. Maybe it's even just some bad leftover symlinks. This can happen if you install from source or use a packaging system that doesn't clean up previous installations thoroughly enough. Remove all older xine libraries manually (rm $prefix/lib/libxine*. and while you're at it, throw away any old plugins in $prefix/lib/xine/plugins/ as well, just to be safe.) Then install xine-lib and xine-ui again. This should fix the problem. file:/usr/share/doc/xine-ui-0.9.17/FAQ_en I think it's probably a good idea to start again. I'll print out your post and use it as a check that I've removed everything possible before re-starting the install. Meanwhile, one last question before I do this.

Re: [newbie] Xine - update
Anne, I've tried several different DVDs, none of which work. The problem I'm having is that when I run Xine, I don't even have the option of playing a DVD (on the GUI), just a VCD and a DVB (whatever that is). When I install the dvdnav package, I have the option of playing a DVD, but all it does is just open the DVD menu, all garbled and mangled, and refuses to play any of them.

Re: [newbie] Xine - update
Hey Anne, Thanks for the reply. No, I don't mind an off-list post whatsoever, and welcome it. I read through the attachment you sent, and I was completely baffled by what it had to say. From what I could make of it, I do believe I have what is needed to play DVDs on my laptop (as I can play DVDs using Ogle or VideoLan), just not Xine. From what I've seen, Xine looks to be the best player out there, and I would love to give it a chance, if I could get it working. But alas, perhaps I was never meant to get Xine working. I still welcome any more suggestions to try and help me get over this very big hurdle. Thanks! :-) Terry Anne Wilson wrote: On Tuesday 21 Jan 2003 3:44 pm, Terry Sheltra wrote: Terry Sheltra [EMAIL PROTECTED] Terry, I don't know whether you've come across this, or whether it will help.

I don't know about you Anne, but when I installed Ogle, I had to download the Red Hat RPMs from Ogle's website. The plf ones wouldn't work after I installed them. It would just crash every time I tried to play a DVD. I also had problems with dependencies as well.

For them I get 'no plugin available for dvd:/'. Apart from that - some disks take a long time to sort themselves out. Some appear to stick on the copyright notice - I had thought they would not play, but if you select 'play the next scene' they will continue and all is well.

Re: [newbie] Xine - update
Hey but wait a minute here are 26 with dmx, even more, and
/usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.0.0/ is in my path. This seems daft.
To my untained mind this semms to imply xine does not know
where to look for them. Now there is this graphical window
with oads of stuff in it that may be something to do with this.
no wait a minute, I'm daft, all I had to do was change /dev/dvd to
/dev/scd0 and it allnow works. Ahh.

It would be nice to be able to program one of those free buttons to that, but what the hell - if I get it to work, I'll not complain at a little c/l :) I just have decrypted somes dvds (Lord of the Rings and somes Thelonious Monk movies) to see what is going here, Anne. Then, I just right clicked over the resulting vobs and then 'Open with xine'. Everything is playing fine. Xine is the smoothest player that I have ever tryed. So, don't bother with c/l.

Technically, this is not really a problem, but it's probably somewhat confusing, as it's not obvious, which xine you're using. You should probably uninstall the copies that you don't use... Further tests assume, you're using /usr//bin/xine [OUCH!!] no xine-config on this machine. This means that xine-lib is either not installed or it is installed in a very unusual place. So you should probably install xine-lib before running xine-check... [ hint ] unable to determine plugin directory I could not determine your plugin directory. That would be much easier if you had xine-config installed (see message above)... Note that I could not check your xine plugins.

This will probably result in a serious performance hit when playing DVDs. You can issue the command hdparm -d1 /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd as root to enable DMA. It would be wise to add this command to some script that is executed executed at boot time. Note that you probably have to set the DMA mode for your drive as well. Most DVD-ROMs work fine with multiword DMA mode 2. You can use hdparm -d1 -X34 /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd (as root again) to set this mode. Maybe UDMA2 will give you even better performance, but it only works well with some controllers. You'll probably need UDMA capable IDE cables for this mode. If you want to try: make backups of your important data and type (as root again) sync hdparm -d1 -X66 /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd If your System still works fine after this, you probably want to keep these settings (add them to some boot script).

Remove all older xine libraries manually (rm $prefix/lib/libxine*. and while you're at it, throw away any old plugins in $prefix/lib/xine/plugins/ as well, just to be safe.)
