xine not installing properly...

**prashanthmpai** · 18-11-2005, 03:28 PM

I installed xine-lib1.0.3 but the xine-ui0.99 is not installing.
While i try to configure xine-ui i got an error that xine-lib is not installed. Actually i installed xine-lib and then tried to configure xine-ui but in vain i got the above error.

I included the path where the xine is installed in

Code:

/etc/ld.so.conf

but still xine-ui didnt configure...

I am using RHEL 4

Download all the 3 rpms and put them in the same folder and give the command
rpm ivh* * --nodeps

**prashanthmpai** · 18-11-2005, 05:09 PM

From where will you get the rpm's for xine cos i tried searching it in xinehq.de but didnt find it there...

Try freshrpms.net

**prashanthmpai** · 19-11-2005, 08:49 AM

even for update it showed conflicts...

**praka123** · 19-11-2005, 12:18 PM

first remove the xorg rpm (if needed give --nodeps),xine-libs etc.try reinstall,first try installing xine-ui ,which will show needed dependencies.install the dependencies one by one.if again conflict shows up try 'rpm -ivh foo.rpm --force' .also AFAIK for xine to play wmv files,u must install win32codecs
http://atrpms.net/dist/common/w32codec/

In xine gui setup option u can get lot of options....
consider mplayer also.gr8 player,got browser plugins also(mozplugger..).
http://atrpms.net/dist/fc3/mplayer/
also if u have installed bash-completion rpm it will help u by double clicking the tab button showing the instaled rpms,files etc..(FYI)

I have tried to play a file directly from the CD in MPLAYER and even xine(xine is working fine now, thanks for everything), but i got an error in MPLAYER as "this file format is not supported" and in case of xine "its not a valid MRL".

How to give a VAILD mrl now.

**aakion** · 20-11-2005, 11:54 AM

i 've got prob on mplayer installation.
can anybody help me.

**prashanthmpai** · 20-11-2005, 04:16 PM

Tell us the problem...

**praka123** · 20-11-2005, 04:23 PM

Perhaps win32codecs or mplayer-codecs-win32 needs to be installed for mplayer to play some formats...

**prashanthmpai** · 20-11-2005, 08:55 PM

I tried doing it but in vain.

**prashanthmpai** · 22-11-2005, 03:02 PM

I tried to play directly from both xine and kaffeine player but i got this error

xine: couldn't find demux for >/media/cdrom/mpegav/avseq01.dat<

Where can i find the demuxer for this?

**praka123** · 22-11-2005, 06:12 PM

check this:
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-in.../msg25171.html
Also i hope U installed mpeg packages,ffmpeg etc gstreamer plugins....

**prashanthmpai** · 22-11-2005, 07:26 PM

Thanks, but i didnt find the "MRL" tab in the setup window.
The solution requires typing ".dat" extension in the "MRL" tab.

Now i got problem with the mplayer.
I upgraded existing mplayer-0.99 to mplayer-1.0 and then it didnt work as i expected. So i uninstalled. Now i am trying to install mplayer-1.0, but i am getting a message that mplayer-1.0 is already installed.

What can be done to this?

**praka123** · 24-11-2005, 07:41 AM

run xine-check as local user,For Xine,if /usrsr/lib/xine/plugins/1.0.1/xineplug_inp_vcd.so is there,then it can play dat files.i too dont have mrl browser for adding .dat extensions...will come with a solution....

mplayer-did u removed it as rpm -e mplayer* ?also remove the accompanying packages come with mplayer same version number....like..
mencoder,

**prashanthmpai** · 25-11-2005, 02:06 PM

The plugin you mentioned is here, but still i get the error about "no demuxer" for so and so file.

mplayer - Where does the files, when we install it through rpm, will be installed?

**vignesh** · 25-11-2005, 06:21 PM

Generally /opt is used to install apps like real player etc.

**prashanthmpai** · 25-11-2005, 09:26 PM

I checked that folder but didnt find anything in it.

usually on the /usr folder. The libraries will be placed under /usr/lib and the executables on /usr/bin. For a complete look open the rpm file with file-roller (popularly known as Archive Manager).
