I ran into a similar problem last night with livna's RPMs. They're
very badly broken (and apparently aren't getting tested before
release). The actual issue for me was that there was an undefined
symbol in livna's ffmpeg RPM which xine relies upon to perform the
decoding. This resulted in xine either hanging, or being unable to
play anything at all (and spewing a cryptic error). I ended up
ripping out livna's ffmpeg, and installing the one from freshrpms
instead, which completely fixed the problem.
Anyone know if the livna xine package has been fixed yet?
