Hi All, I'm still trying to play a DVB-S stream via Kaffeine using Xine. I just compiled xine-lib-1.1.7. But the error message is still the same: xine: couldn't find demux for >/home/user/.kaxtv.ts< xine: found input plugin: file input plugin video_decoder: no plugin available to handle 'XviD' xine: found demuxer plugin: AVI/RIFF demux plugin xine: found input plugin: file input plugin I have Win32 codecs in my /usr/lib/win32 with read/write/execute permissions for all users. What else could be wrong?! -- Best regards, Andrew |

Make sure you have uninstalled previous versions. If unsure, run "kaffeine --verbose" from a term and look at the version msg= =20 (kaffeine: KXineWidget: Using xine version 1.1.7hg). =2D-=20 Christophe Thommeret |

It looks like version 1.1.6 is still active, at least the plugins are taken from /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.6/ ... Sorry for a dummy question: how do I uninstall version 1.1.6? Full output of 'kaffeine --verbose' is attached. Thanks a lot! |

Maybe a silly question, but the message refers to the XviD codec, which has it's own linux version. Do you have that installed? or else have you installed DivX? That should be able to handle XviD as well. Hans |

That should be able to handle XviD as well. I think that was the key! I added some repositories and made a full upgrade. I noticed a 'libxvid' or something like that was installed then. I'm not sure that was the reason but anyway after that my Kaffeine worked with my DVB-S card!!! But image quality is quite bad. It looks like deinterlacing is not working (very noticeable on moving 'targets') and sometimes quality is like a low-bitrate movie (compression is clearly visible on a highly-detailed scenes). I'm not sure Xine has something to do with that, but maybe someone had such experience in the past. Please share... Thanks! -- Best regards, Andrew |

Looks like the quality of your video is bad.

> Looks like the quality of your video is bad. Do you mean the source or the video card? I tried it on two diferent systems (PIII-1Ghz with Matrox G400 and P4-3GHz with i915G built-in graphics). Results were very similar... |
