For FC4 and prior, I compiled my own xine lib and ui; however, xine lib
1.1.1 doesn't compile on FC5 yet,
so I used RPMs from Livna. With my own compile on FC4 and prior, CPU
usage of Xine and X wouldn't
go above 50% w/ AA on, but with FC5 and Livna RPMs CPU usage ranges from
75-95% w/o AA. X seems
to be taking 40-50%.
I have my video rendering set to Auto, setting to xv didn't fix problem
and OpenGL is worse since it's an
ATi Mach 64 mobile so no accel. I used an libdvdcss RPM first then
built one from SRPM but no difference.
DMA turned on.
Gnome 2.14 is snapper than Gnome 2.12 & FC4, but when I run a DVD
everything goes to hell. I basically
can't fast forward because it uses too much CPU. I also used to browse
the web at the same time w/o loosing
frames (w/ AA), not a chance now.
Mplayer RPMs from Livna seem just as bad except I have no menu control
in Mplayer =P

Please be patient, this script may take a while to run...
[ good ] you're using Linux, doing specific tests

[ 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
[ hint ] No xine-config found. Assuming xine from RPMs
The xine-config script can be used to determine some file locations
used by xine-lib, but you don't have such a script on your system.
However, it looks like you installed xine from the RedHat packages.
So I'll just guess that you are using the standard locations.
If you want me to be sure about those file locations, you can
install
the 'xine-lib-devel' package (or 'xine-devel', depend on what
packages
you're using, which contains xine-config. However, this package is
not really needed to run xine...

When I compiled myself, I never got ouches. Am I missing libs or
something?
