I was going to do so yesterday, but a failed PSU fan put paid to that. (The PSU has been replaced now and that computer is up and running again; thoughts on the viability of replacing the fan in the old one, anybody?) You could try using the xine-1_0 branch (as of yesterday - a lot of stuff has been merged from HEAD today, ready for 1.0.1). You'll need to change the plugin version number in the patch fom 16 to 15 (look for PLUGIN_INPUT); memory says that there should be one reject and that it's trivially fixable.

If it's the only item in the playlist then clicking on the 'play' button should be sufficient (with gxine, it is); other than that, I doubt it - you've hit end-of-stream :-) -- | Darren Salt | nr.
