[KLUG Members] Xine & Win32 libs

[Adam Williams]

I'm in the process of re-installing Xine after my move to RH8.0.  Can't
find any packages so I'm installing this one from source.

It reminds me to ask a question I've been wondering about for awhile -

The Xine ./configure sports the "--with-w32-path=path    Location of
WIN32 libraries" option.  And the Xine website claims it can use Win32
codec libraries.

What does this actually mean?  Had anyone used it?  It is played like a
big deal but the documentation on this point is pretty shaky.  Several
other video players (lamp) claim to support the same thing.

Does this mean one could hi-jack the Sorenson codec from a windows
partition?  Or am I missing something?
