In the first place, thanks for trying. However, maybe it was not as useless as you suspected. Although only this morning I tried a yum update with livna enabled, I was not offered an update. My xine-lib version is the same as yours, but the mplayer version is mplayer-1.0-0.69.rc1.lvn6 - IOW the same as your older one. You said that it was working for you, but of course there is always the possiblity of a conflict with something else on this box. I'll give the mirrors time to update then try again for the latest mplayer. If that doesn't help I think I will uninstall all the dvd players and start afresh. It could take a long time poking around to find the problem area, if I ever do. A fresh install of everything xine- and mplayer- related may be a quicker and cleaner option. Anne
