From the command line the GUI is rendered without borders. Also in a 32 bit environment the GUI is rendered correctly. I've loaded mplayer, also from freshrpms, to use as a xine alternative. It works well except I noticed there is no support for win32 DLLs in the 64 bit architecture. Oh well, not that big of a loss. On the xine front, I've noticed that since I loaded mplayer, xine and xine-totem have a lot of distortion in their audio. I cannot account for it. I too shall wait for the next update. Bob...
