Hi,

    I've yum installed xine, but when opening xine I get a window telling "The stream there is no MRL.uses an unsupported codec. Video codec: MPEG 1/2 (0x0) Start play back anyway"

and there are yes and no buttons, whatever button I press the window reappears. I'm using Fedora 10. The output of #xine-check command is attached. Can anyone help me solve this

Thanks in advance

Rod Pitcher.

Please be patient, this script may take a while to run...
[OUCH!!] You're running me with root permissions?
         You should definitely run xine as normal user, not root. Running it as
         root will expose you to some severe security issues.
         This script should run as the same user that you would use to run
         xine. If you run me as root (as you currently are), I cannot check
         if your real-life user has sufficient permissions...
         Unless you want to recheck something with root permissions, you should
         abort me now (press Ctrl-C) and run me from your usual account.

[ good ] you're using Linux, doing specific tests
[ good ] looks like you have a /proc filesystem mounted.
[ good ] You seem to have a reasonable kernel version (2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686)
[ good ] intel compatible processor, checking MTRR support
[ good ] you have MTRR support and there are some ranges set.
[ good ] found the player at /usr/bin/xine
[ good ] /usr/bin/xine is in your PATH
[ good ] found /usr/bin/xine-config in your PATH
[ good ] plugin directory /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.26 exists.
[ good ] found unknown plugin: xineplug_flac.so
[ good ] found unknown plugin: xineplug_wavpack.so
[ good ] found input plugins
[ good ] found demux plugins
[ good ] found decoder plugins
[ good ] found video_out plugins
[ good ] found audio_out plugins
[OUCH!!] no skin directory (/usr/share/skins)
         The skin-directory doesn't exist. xine-config claims that there
         is a skin directory at /usr/share/skins.
         However, there is no such directory.
         You probably need to reinstall xine-ui.

[ good ] /dev/cdrom points to /dev/sr0
[ good ] /dev/dvd points to /dev/sr0
[ hint ] Your DVD drive seems not to be attached via ATAPI.
         This might be due to the use of an ide-scsi emulation.
         If you really have a SCSI DVD drive, your SCSI controller is likely
         to do perfect DMA, so there's no reason to worry about this.
         However, if you're using ide-scsi, there is a chance that DMA is
         disabled for the DVD drive. Moreover, I don't know how to enable
         DMA in that case, so you probably have to live with some performance
         loss. (FIXME: check for /proc/ide, provide solution)

[ good ] found xvinfo: X-Video Extension version 2.2
[ hint ] Your X server doesn't support YV12 overlays.
         That means xine will have to do color space transformation and scaling
         in software, which is quite CPU intensive. Maybe upgrading your
         X server will help here.
         If you have an ATI card, you'll find accelerated X servers on
         http://www.linuxvideo.org/gatos/

[ hint ] Your X server doesn't have any XVideo support...
         XVideo is an X server extension introduced by XFree86 4.x. This
         extension provides access to hardware accelerated color space
         conversion and scaling, which gives a great performance boost.
         If you have a fast (>1GHz) machine, you may be able to watch all
         kinds of video, anyway. You will waste lots of CPU cycles, though...
