<0> hi
<0> i got a problem here
<0> im on suse 64 and i got error msgs that cant find the necessary codecs
<0> but i have them
<0> Anyone alive?
<1> Bob_Spoonge_, which codecs?
<0> w32....and mpeg
<0> no movies are running under xine...
<0> but if i run kaffeine, it works
<0> with xine core
<1> make sure you set the right codecs path
<2> Bob_Spoonge_: what directory do you have your codecs under?
<2> here's a dumb question... i attempted the switch that will allow you to play movies in text format (aa, and caca), and now i can't get any movies to play in xine at all.
<2> i did try a wipe and reinstall, but it's still not playing..
<0> and /usr/lib/w32
<2> is that where the codecs ARE or is that where xine has the codecs set to be?
<2> mine defaults on slackware to /usr/lib/win32
<2> i also have an identical set in /usr/lib/codecs
<0> well...same here
<2> because xine didn't seem to like them symlinked.
<0> =/
<2> which codec pack did you grab?
<0> everyone that i saw
<2> from where?
<2> my mistake to try aa and caca
<2> i thankfully have xine working on the laptop
<2> so i can suffer mplayer on the desktop
<3> aaxine? cacaxine? Or do you mean (g)xine -V aa?
<3> $ grep 'video\.driver' ~/.xine/config
<3> (or ~/.gxine/config)
<0> video driver:auto
<3> Should be, yes.
<3> Even if it isn't and the driver can't be initialised, it should still default to something sensible.
<3> (At least, gxine does.)
<0> is "auto"
<3> One quick hack is to rename the config file...
<3> You can then check the differences between the default and your old config file - that may be helpful
<2> xine -V aa
<2> grep 'video\.driver' ~/.xine/config
<2> #video.driver:auto
<2> oops...
<2> wrong system
<2> this is the working xine
<3> Should be OK...
<3> Copy its configuration file across?
<2> smart idea.
<2> though oddly, after a reboot, it gave me the same on the other system.
<2> i got a video to play...
<2> but happy that it works.
<2> i'm not exactly fond of mplayer...
<2> only use it for certain things that xine is unhappy with (which isn't much)
<3> Fun... the cdda plugin will play data tracks. :-)
<3> (My only CD with audio tracks is an old Archimedes World cover CD.)
<3> OOI: is anybody using the DVB input plugin to receive HD transmissions? Is it working?
<3> I rarely bother with analogue TV now...
<1> sigh :P
<3> It's due to be switched off around here in 2012, but some other parts of the country will be digital-only next year.
<3> Hmm, looks like it does work (or at least the code for it seems to be there).
<1> _ds, here they moved it from 2007 to 2008 (the switch off)
<1> but they introduced dvb-t only two years ago
<1> and prices of dvb-t decoders are... silly.. a decent one is minimum
<3> Ouch. The cheapest here is around or .
<1> with one or two outputs?
<3> Not sure, but not much different anyway.
<1> here it is.. for the equivalent you have only boxes with a) no crypted decoding b) only one euro-av output c) no digital audio output
<1> pretty useless for most cases, as you'd need two anyway for a living room where you have tv and vcr
<3> There are encrypted channels, but I've not seen many which handle them.
<1> anyway, my aerial isn't able to receive dvb-t :P so i'm simply waiting to find the money to change the whole stuff, adding dvb-s too and then find dvb cards for this box here :P
<2> i don't think the US will hit that 2008 shut off of analog tv.
<2> people dont' like to be forced to buy new equipment if the old is working just fine.
