Introduction to Xine User Interface
The xine User Interface package
contains a multimedia player. It plays back CDs, DVDs and VCDs. It
also decodes multimedia files like AVI, MOV, WMV, MPEG and MP3 from
local disk drives, and displays multimedia streamed over the
Internet.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-11.1
platform.
Note
Although this version of xine-ui works with most files, it is
unable to open encrypted (content-scrambled) DVDs with the
current version of libdvdcss.

Installation of Xine User Interface
Install xine User Interface by
running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr &&
make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root
user:
make docsdir=/usr/share/doc/xine-ui-0.99.13 install
Note
This package installs icon files into the /usr/share/icons/hicolor
hierarchy and desktop
files into the /usr/share/applications
hierarchy. You can
improve system performance and memory usage by updating
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/index.theme
and
/usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache
. To
perform the update you must have GTK+-2.24.33 or
GTK+-3.24.31 installed (for the icon cache)
and desktop-file-utils-0.26 (for
the desktop cache) and issue the following commands as the
root
user:
gtk-update-icon-cache -qtf /usr/share/icons/hicolor &&
update-desktop-database -q
