external plug-ins that allow the flow of information from the
source to the screen and speakers.

Installation of Xine Libraries
Install xine Libraries by running
the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-static &&
make
Trying to use the locally installed FFmpeg library by passing --with-external-ffmpeg to configure may not compile cleanly.
You will need to pass --with-xv-path=</directory/path> to
configure if you
didn't install Xorg or
XFree86 in /usr/X11R6. For example, if you installed
Xorg in /usr, you will need to use --with-xv-path=/usr/lib.
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root user:
make install
Command Explanations
--enable-static: This switch is used to
enable building the static library as some programs link against
it.
