Post subject: | Mplayer VS Xine |
I am running RD51. I have found that Xine is a bit smarter when it comes to finding the audio tracks for ripped DVD's. It also seems to play the surround sound correctly. I couldn't believe the difference it made sound wise. My questions is simple. Right now myth and my remote is setup to use mplayer to view ripped DVD's. When I change my player settings to use xine rather than mplayer, the only thing on the remote that works for watching ripped movies is Play and Pause. (FFW, Skip ahead, Stop etc.) do not work any more. What file needs to be edited, and where do I find the commands needed to incorporate Xine? |

http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php? ... neDVDHowTo (scroll to "setting LIRC options") and http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2723#2723 /home/mythtv/.lircrc is the file (I am pretty sure), but the particulars will be different depending on what remote you have. If you look and see how mplayer is set up you should be able to do similar things with xine. |

Thanks for the quick reply. I seemed to answer my own question before you posted. I do that a lot. Somehow I found the lircrc file.lol Any way, this is what I did for a Hauppage DogBone remote: Code: #Mplayer Section
# Show OSD begin prog = xine button = Menu/i repeat = 3 config = rootmenu end # Mute begin prog = mplayer button = MUTE repeat = 3 config = mute end # Quit begin prog = mplayer button = BACK/EXIT repeat = 3 config = quit end begin prog = mplayer button = VOL- repeat = 3 config = volume -1 end begin prog = mplayer button = VOL+ repeat = 3 config = volume 1 end # Pause playback begin prog = mplayer button = PAUSE repeat = 3 config = pause end # Skip ahead a minute if playing # If paused, resume playing begin prog = mplayer button = PLAY repeat = 3 config = seek +1 end # Stop playback and exit begin prog = xine button = STOP repeat = 3 config = stop end begin prog = xine button = Forward repeat = 3 config = SeekRelative+15 end begin prog = xine button = Rewind repeat = 3 config = SeekRelative-15 end begin prog = xine button = SkipForward repeat = 3 config = SeekRelative+60 end begin prog = xine button = Replay/SkipBackward repeat = 3 config = SeekRelative-60 end begin prog = xine button = BLUE repeat = 3 config = zoomout end begin prog = xine button = YELLOW repeat = 3 config = zoomin end ## Messed up Previous Channel, Menu, FFW, RRW, SKIP, REPLAY The only problem that I see so far is for the FFD and RWD. The least that it can go is in increments of 15. It works, but not as well as the mplayer's seek 10 or seek -10. But I think I can live with it. BTW, the sound is unbeliveable. Maybe I never setup Mplayer to work with DTS and or AC3. But Xine seems to work right out of the box. Thanks ceenvee703 for you hasty reply. Maybe this post will help someone else out too. |

If I'm no longer using Mplayer, do I need that? |

no that is only if you are using mplayer and wanted better sound. |
