Hi guys, I'm not very active in this front lately, but maybe this is useful for you. Ronald ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Jeffrey D.

It seems to work better using the xine backend drivers better than the gstreamer drivers. Just a suggestion for future development: It would be great if the program could tell you what specific drivers are needed when they are not all installed. For example, I have Totem installed on my desktop and it says, "Totem cannot play this type of media (DVD) because you do not have the appropriate plugins to handle it. Please install the necessary plugins and restart Totem to be able to play this media." Of course, this does not tell me what plugins are necessary to install. The program would be a lot easier to use if I knew what plugins were necessary. Currently, I am using Scientific Linux 5.1 as my desktop operating system and I cannot use the xine-backend for Totem because the Totem-Xine software was not designed for this operating system, thus I am forced to use the G-streamer backend, which for the most part, is difficult to use.
