Edited by JohnB316 only to fix the URL for the source tree.

Edited by exeterdad: Thanks John, I just discovered I placed everything in x-apps rather then libs.  All fixed and URL re-edited (is that a word?) to the correct location.

As I posted in the Packagers board, I became aware of an error in xine when Compiz was being used as the window manager under xfce4. Here is the error message I got with the xine-lib-1.1.8 in the VL 5.9 final:

Code:

john:$ This is xine (X11 gui) - a free video player v0.99.5.
(c) 2000-2007 The xine Team.
xiTK WARNING(_x_error_handler:258): X error received: 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'
X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  20 (X_GetProperty)
  Resource id in failed request:  0x1a00052
  Serial number of failed request:  43
  Current serial number in output stream:  43

A Google Linux search revealed that this is a known issue with xine running under compiz and xfce4. A patch was posted on the xine-cvs mailing list at http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=E1Iye9T-0007Dj-5I%40sc8-pr-cvs10.sourceforge.net

Dweeberkitty was kind enough to build the latest xine-lib, but the patch for compiz apparently didn't make it out of cvs, as I got the same error message with xine-lib-1.1.10 under compiz and xfce4.

HTH something,
John

Installed and works fine here (no compwiz-fusion...).

Sound quality is better than the older version.

Problem with using gslapt to get xine-lib: gslapt complained about the orbit issue. Has a fixed package of orbit been released? If so, EVERYTHING that has orbit as a dependency needs rebuilding if it's built against the incorrectly named package.

Thanks,
John

Working fine here too. gslapt complained about the orbit issue too...
