Ok, well I have grabbed RP9 and things to be working fine again now as they where with RP8. I also noted you mentioned faad, so I just rebuilt libxine as I never had faad or Flac installed on my system so I guess I should be set for most things now.. Not that I had any problems, curiosity just got the better of me.. Thanks again.. Colin -- Fedora Core 2, Custom Built Kernel 2.6.7 KDE-Redhat-3.2.3 Registered Linux user number 342953 |
