AFAIK, Livna has a nice (xine-lib'd) kdemultimedia-extras package already.
It was my impression that KDE was going to be moving over to using
gstreamer soon. Wouldn't this end up replacing xine-lib?
What does it matter? For current FC4, the used KDE version uses a libxine
based arts plugin, and the kdemultimedia-extras package from Livna
provides that in order to enhance FC4 KDE video players.
If a future KDE version changes to a different multimedia backend, well,
then hopefully the gstreamer-plugins-extras-nonfree package (or whatever
it will be called) will be ready by that time.
Why it matters is that this thread actually started with someone talking
about a yum repo that replaces KDE on Fedora, and discussion was about
what was missing in Fedora's KDE that this KDE had.
Requests were made be Fedora developers to list the missing features to
see if they could be added to Fedora (or whether they were non-free).
Someone pointed out that xine-lib (non-free) was missing and I commented
that this may not be an issue for newer versions of KDE (in Fedora)
because it looks like KDE will be moving to gstreamer.
