-*******************************
-* Kaffeine 0.8.x README *
-*******************************
+ kaffeine - a media player for TDE.
-------------------------------------------------------
-!! HAVE A LOOK AT KAFFEINE HANDBOOK !!
-------------------------------------------------------
-!!!!!!!!!! IMPORTANT !!!!!!!
-Live DVB only works with the xine backend (XinePart).
-Depending on your distro, this package could be called kaffeine-xine.
-Install it, start Kaffeine and change the backend in menu->settings->engine, then restart Kaffeine.
-Note that this is only needed for live playback. All other features (recording, broadcasting..) do not depend on the backend.
-Anyway, I strongly recommend the xine engine even if you don't have a DVB device. All others are incomplete and/or buggy.
-Also note that for licensing reasons, some distro (kubuntu, suse) comes with "restricted" media libraries (xine, gstreamer),
-so you won't be able to play some media files (in fact the most common ones:().
-You will have to install an "unrestricted" version in order to play all your media files.
-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+While Kaffeine supports gstreamer and xine as media player engines, its
+default engine is Xine, giving Kaffeine a wide variety of supported
+media types and letting Kaffeine access CDs, DVDs, as well as network
+streams.
-Latest Kaffeine version is available on http://trinitydesktop.org
+Features:
+=========
+* drag and drop
+* an editable playlist
+* a bookmark system
+* Konqueror plugin (kaffeine-mozilla)
+* OSD

-INSTALLATION:
--------------
-
-In order to compile and install Kaffeine on your system, type the following in the base
-directory of the Kaffeine distribution:
-
- 1.) ./configure --prefix=TDEDIR --mandir=MANPAGE_DIR (e.g. for SuSE: --prefix=/opt/trinity --mandir=/usr/share/man)
- (use ./configure --help for more options)

-
- 3.) make install

-INSTALLATION FROM SVN:
-----------------------
-
-See http://kaffeine.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=developers
-
-
-IMPORTANT CONFIGURE FLAGS:
---------------------------
-
- --with-xorg : use this ONLY(!) in the case Kaffeine hangs at startup
- --without-dvb : disables DVB support (may accelerate startup)
- --without-gstreamer: disables build of the gstreamer based player-part
-
-
-TROUBLESHOOTING:
-----------------
-
-*) Fedora Users: If make aborts with '/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lselinux' install
- the libselinux-devel package or disable selinux.
-
-*) If Kaffeine hangs on start run 'configure --with-xinit-workaround' and recompile/reinstall.
