Video::Xine is a Perl interface to libxine.

SYNOPSIS

use Video::Xine;

# Create and initialize the Xine object
my $xine = Video::Xine->new(
config_file => "$ENV{'HOME'}/.xine/config",
);

# Load a video driver
my $video_driver = Video::Xine::Driver::Video->new($xine,"auto",1,$x11_visual);

# Create a new stream (put your video driver under $DRIVER)
my $stream = $xine->stream_new(undef,$DRIVER);

# Open a file on the stream
$stream->open('file://my/movie/file.avi')
or die "Couldn't open stream: ", $stream->get_error();

# Get the current position (0 .. 65535), position in time, and length
# of stream in milliseconds
my ($pos, $pos_time, $length_time) = $stream->get_pos_length();

# Start the stream playing
$stream->play()
or die "Couldn't play stream: ", $xine->get_error();

# Play the stream to the end
while ( $stream->get_status() == XINE_STATUS_PLAY ) {
sleep(1);
}

A perl interface to Xine, the Linux movie player. More properly, an interface to libxine, the development library. Requires installation of libxine.

Xine by itself does not provide a user interface, and neither does this interface. Instead, you must set up the window using your own windowing code, and pass the window information to Xine.

Requirements:
Perl
