In order to play .wmv files and other windows multimedia formats I've used the wincodec RPM on my 32-bit machine. I'd like to use those same windows codecs on my 64-bit machine. It is my understanding that 64-bit Mplayer/Xine can't use 32-bit dll files. Therefore, I've tried to install a 32-bit version of those players. I've tried to install a 32-bit version of Xine by selecting a 32-bit packman version of xine-ui and libxine using Yast (I added packman to Yast sources). The install went OK and all dependencies should have been OK. But when I tried to run xine it reported that the shared lib libcurl could not be found. A 64-bit version of libcurl is installed but I was unable to install a 32-bit version without removing the 64-bit version (using Yast). Next, I copied libcurl from a 32-bit system to /usr/lib on my 64-bit machine. When i started xine, my machine crashed, hardly the result I was looking for. Does anyone know a way to get the 32-bit codecs working on my 64-bit machine? Thanks in advance, Klaas P.S. Is there a way to search the list archives? Browsing the archives is just not very efficient...

Why didn't you just install curl-32bit, which contains 32bit libcurl?

And another question, just to make sure, it should be possible to have a 32-bit xine running on x86_64 right? Thanks in advance, Klaas

Sorry - this was my error, I was looking in the wrong location, curl-32bit is available only post 9.2. So copying the libs was the correct approach.

Yes. (But I never tried it.)
Thanks in advance,
Klaas
