As xine says, it needs an mpeg encoder to play non mpeg content via 
dxr3. This is because the dxr3 card only decodes mpeg, so we have to 
encode other streams before. Problem: This needs pretty much cpu time, 
expect dropped frames on slower machines.
The solution would therefore be to install libfame or librte (both are 
mpeg encoder libraries) and recompile xine-lib.
