[mythtv-users] Mplayer or Xine

[DBakker at arrayasolutions.com]

Ok, cool I use xine also. I didnt realize mplayer still doesnt support 
menus.

Yeah you can in the setup. The player commands are:
for mythvideo: xine -pfh %s
for mythdvd: xine -pfhq --auto-scan dvd

Then you can setup lirc to use your remote with xine. It works perfectly 
for me. I didnt realize mplayer was still so far behind mplayer.

I've heard talk about people using Xine instead of mplayer for playback 
of DVD's and was wondering how one would configure MythTV to use it.  I 
would love to be able to access the menu's from my DVD's and would 
welcome any help anyone could give :)  By the way, does anyone know if 
it's possible to use Xine as the backend for MythVideo as well as MythDVD?
