When I try to play a radio stream I get the error:

Sorry xine 1-rc6a cannot play remote streams, please upgrade to 1-rc7

I have installed the packages for xine 1.1 though (which should be later than 1-rc7, right?).

My system is SUSE 9.2 with xine from Packman and amarok from Guru packages.

Any suggestions?

Ok, I\'ve just removed this check. It\'s not needed any more.

I don\'t know why you\'re getting a false positive. Possibly the check just went mad. Upgrading or downgrading xine-lib a bit should fix it.

Or upgrade to amaroK SVN..

@kg
maybe the suse packages are still installed? :unsure:

apachelogger:
no I checked.

markey:
I upgraded for just that reason and it didn\'t work afterwards either, as for SVN: ouch... too much work to just try it out. I tried to use gstreamer, but it keeps giving me trouble (crashes). No fuss, I continue using amarok anyway.

the strange thing is that I\'m running xine 1.1 also from packman on susi 9.3 and I never had problems at building, neither on suse 9.2

have you installed all xine packages from pm?

well, I never build, just use guru\'s rpms. I don\'t think I have installed every little bit of xine. here\'s what I have:
#rpm -qa | grep xine
xinetd-2.3.13-42
gxine-0.4.1-0.pm.0
xine-ui-0.99.3-0.pm.0
amarok-xine-1.3.0_1.0-1.guru.suse92.kde33
libxine1-1.1.0-0.pm.0

You think, I am missing something?

As I understand, a proper xine experience is possible if you install all the files available in Packman webpage.
It is possible to add a corresponiding installation source in YaST and install them from YaST quick and easily

Well, I cannot imagine that I need things like ASCII art display. Also if I was missing something then the amarok rpm would probably show some error on installation.

xineted isn\'t part of xinelib
gxine is front-end
xine-ui is also a front-end
amarok-xine is the engine
libxine is the mainpart

so yeah, I think you\'re missing something, try to install all xinelib packages (arn\'t that much) ... if this doesn\'t work, then guru probably packed with xine1.0.1 or 1.0. 2 and this causes the problem, so a downgrade should fix it ... and if this also doesn\'t work, then has guru a bug in his spec file

Ok, I downloaded everithing from packman. However, yesterday amarok crashed and left some zombie processes, which I had to kill in order to start it. It started ok, and I started playing the first tune of the auto-playlist thingy (the thing I love about amarok), when it hung up. It played the whole song, then stopped and kept saying it was updating my collection, without progress bar, which it usually shows and hung up on me. Not only that, because (well probably anyway) I had started it from console I lost my keyboard as well. Luckily the mouse was still working and KDEs close button gave me the opportunity to kill amarok, get the keyboard back and write this report. I doubt this has anything to do with my xine installtion, has it?
