Nice to hear, that's what we develope xine for ;-)
How many Frames exactly are dropped? what kind of Stream (MPEG1/2, what
kin of Audio) do you play? (Just for our success list...)

Yes, that sounds like a problem with your Xv driver. If you are using our
release (0.3.1), you can be sure that this is not a xine problem. If you
are using a CVS snapshot, please check with the release version first!

If you suspect a problem with xine, please give us a complete log of xine
output and a detailed description of your setup, so we can reconstruct
things...
