libavcodec, which definitely cannot go into Fedora.)
Good to know. Thanks for the information. I'm still planning on
giving it a shot to remove the ffmpeg pieces or at least attempt to
backport webm and some other support to an earlier version. Don't
know if the xine project will accept the patches if I get the latest
version working with an option to turn off/remove ffmpeg support, but
the project certainly looks doable.
