Xine FAQ
Step by step guide to run xine You need to download the xine engine (libxine). Get the libxine rpm which more closely matches yourCPU: libxine1-(version)-xxxxxx.i586.rpm for Pentium/Pentium MMX libxine1-(version)-xxxxxx.i686.rpm for Pentium II/III/IV libxine1-(version)-xxxxxx.k6.rpm for AMD K6 libxine1-(version)-xxxxxx.k7.rpm for AMD Athlon/Duron If you don't know your CPU just get the i586 package. Download xine-ui: xine-ui-(version)-xxxxxx.i586.rpm for any CPU. Install the packages (you need to be root): # rpm -U libxine1* xine-ui* If you want full DVD support download and install libdvdcss: libdvdcss-1.2.8-1.network.i386.rpm By default, xine expects to find your DVD-ROM at /dev/dvd. Creating a symbolic link to your device is recommended (for example, /dev/hdc or /dev/scd0). The command below should work for most users: # ln -s /dev/cdrom /dev/dvd Make sure the DMA is enabled for your DVD-ROM, otherwise playback will be 'jumpy'. # hdparm -d1 /dev/cdrom
