Hi, I am running xine 0.9.13 lib and 0.9.13-ui on Mandrake Linux 9.0. When= =20 I attempt to play Windows .wmv files i get the errors "No video plugin=20 available to decode Windows Media Video 8" and "No audio plugin availabl= e=20 to decode DivX audio WMA". What are the plugins for this type of file,=20 where do i get it and how do i install it to work with xine 0.9.13? Thanks Othellotelford |

mandrake wanted to play it particularly safe in the legal realm, and disabled the support for wmv at compile-time. as a result, it is probably not possible to watch wmv/wma with this mandrake version. so here's what i did with mandrake 9: first uninstall .9.13 (search for all packages with 'xine' in the name, except xinet) then get the source code and compile/install it. this did not work for me (with suse i never had problems :( ) so i fetched the binary versions from packman lib: http://packman.links2linux.de/index.php4?action=124&vn=3 ui: http://packman.links2linux.de/index.php4?action=125&vn=4 one of these packets contains the win32 codecs for wmv. though as i understood, with the newest xine version, wmv is supported without these codecs. h2h stefan |

No, the libxine1-w32dll-1_beta1-0.i686.rpm contains the xine-plugin to use win32dlls, not hte dlls itselve, they can be downloaded at http://packman.links2linux.de/index.php4?action=046 > though as i understood, with the newest xine version, wmv is > supported without these codecs. WMA7 (the audio-format, used in divx3 movies) is supported without win32dlls, WMV and newer WMA codecs AFIK not. -- Machs gut | http://www.iivs.de/schwinde/buerger/tremmel/ | http://packman.links2linux.de/ Manfred | http://www.knightsoft-net.de |

I don't know if your xine-rpm is compiled with win32dll support, but you can find this dlls at http://mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/ as RPM (it's a bin only RPM, not distro-specific): http://packman.links2linux.de/index.php4?action=046 You also can Update to libxine 1.0beta1 and xine-ui 0.9.16, this supports DivX-Sound (WMA 7) native, but not WMA 8 or 9. -- Machs gut | http://www.iivs.de/schwinde/buerger/tremmel/ | http://packman.links2linux.de/ Manfred | http://www.knightsoft-net.de |
