Is that skin dependent?  I'm using the Antares skin.  Still, additional 
speeds are needed 32-128x.  Xine strikes me as technology that was 
technology driven vs. user driven.  i.e.  bottom up design vs. top-down 
and user focused/centric.  It's good but there are some user features 
and interface issues that need some work -- and then it would become a 
great app.
