For Xine to function properly you will also need to install the following:-

xine-lib-devel* (Which ever matches your installed version)
libdvdnav       (DVD Navigator)
libdvdcss
libdvdplay
libdvdread

There are a few others, but I can't think of them right now, but this should
get you going.

I've used Xine for quite a few years now, and it does play pretty much all the
video formats out there now. And it's quite easy to use.
