Hello list, 
 
  I tried to watch 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon' last night with
xine but there were too many dropping frames so I had to switch to
'mplayer' but since I haven't used it I couldn't figure out how to
enable the subtitles, I tried 'v', 'j', 'F' but nothing worked.
Anyway! I did a 'xine-check' which is the first thing they tell you to
do and here is the result:

$ xine-check
Please be patient, this script may take a while to run...
[ good ] you're using Linux, doing specific tests
[ good ] looks like you have a /proc filesystem mounted.
[ good ] You seem to have a reasonable kernel version (2.6.5-1.358-1)

[ 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 deternime 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...

So I said fine lets reinstall! I did 'yum erase xine' and after that
finished I did 'yum install xine' and after that finished I did a
'xine-check' and I got the same result! I used 'Dag's' Repository for
xine of course. Here is the querry for it:

$ rpm -qa xine*
xine-0.99.2-1.1.fc2.dag
xine-lib-1.0.0-0.14.rc6a.1.fc2.dag


Anybody has any good ideas or similar problem?

Thanks!
F.
