They are knobs, you can't ask them questions directly, but have to subscribe 
to a mailing list, I'm already on enough of them thank you! Maybe a forum or 
something? Gawd! An IRC channel would be good too! Anyway, I find Xine to be 
too crashy for my tastes, if you start fiddling with things it gets killed. 
Mplayer is much more stable, albeit slower, due to the Mhz involved (500 and 
on), but it's not very crashy and you can tweak it to your heart's content. 
I'm not really a big fan of Xine, sorry (I tried to like it, but it just 
didn't like me!).
