xine-ui would not install because of a dependency error which was that,
"Nothing provideslibnvtvsimple.so.0" which is needed by xine-ui.

libnvtvsimple I found out by going over to my 11.0 installation is
provided by libnvtv which is nowhere to be found in the 11.1
files/repos. I had to install it from the 11.0 version after which
xine-ui installed and is now working correctly.


It's installed here...64-bit installs. Kaffeine has quit on BOTH this
desktop and my laptop after upgrades with the error that we all just
love to see telling me that it has limited codecs. I have priority set
at 80 for packman and vidolan. 'Like to know if anyone else has this
problem and if so, how to fix it.


I mentioned this one some time ago- apart from w32codec it appears that
one also now needs libxine1-codecs. Install this and see if this
resolves your problem.

Nope.....it's something else...don't know what it is! :( the
libxine1-codecs file has been installed for sometime. Once again,
there's something scewed up in the repositories or in the system.

Memory going on me... :-( .

Now that I think back, I had the same problem with kaffeine coming up
with missing codec or something like it. I am trying to remember what I
actually did to overcome this (and I know that not having libnvtv
installed had something to do with my hassle but I think this was mainly
related to the inability to use digital TV).

Also, something at the back of my mind is telling me that I had to make
packman have a higher priority over videolan for updates -- I think!
:-( (All sorts of thoughts going thru the mind about what I did to get
kaffeine going.)

'Already have done that, but make increase the priority more.

Let's start from scratch and see if this helps.

The files I have to ensure are installed for me to use either xine or
kaffeine (and kaffeine uses the xine engine) are:

libxine1
speex
w32codecs
libdvdcss
libxine1-dvb (for my TV card)
xine-lib

Lib. is "no more"....remember...conflicts?

libxine1-codecs
xine-ui
libnvtv

See if the above are installed and in the meantime I'll keep trying to
remember what I actually did to get kaffeine running. (Oh, I always copy
over to a new install my ~/.xine directory so as not to have to
reconfigure the xine engine in the new installation.)

xine config. was left alone...I didn't remove it. I sent to private
cover a post on all this.....VERY strange indeed.
