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 -MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS: ---------------------- - *) xine-lib 1.0.2 (we recommend 1.1.1) (http://www.xinehq.de) - *) TDE >= 3.2 (http://trinitydesktop.org) +CONTRIBUTING +============= - *) for DVB support: see README.dvb - *) for the gstreamer player-part: see README.gstreamer +If you wish to contribute to kaffeine, you might do so: -RECOMMENDED: ------------- - - *) WIN32 Codecs (http://www.mplayerhq.hu) - *) libdvdcss (http://developers.videolan.org/libdvdcss) - - -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) - - 2,) make - - 3.) make install - - -On the download page you'll find RPM's for most distributions. - -Problems?
