XINE-CHECK(1)						      General Commands Manual						     XINE-CHECK(1)

NAME

       xine-check - a checker for the xine video player

SYNOPSIS

       xine-check [-q] [-v] [-B] [-b]
       xine-bugreport [-q] [-v] [-B]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  explains  the xine-checker program.	xine-check is a program, which tests the xine video player installation for common
       problems.

       If you experience any problem with or while running xine, running xine-check might provide useful hints for problem tracking.

       xine-check tests the operating system settings, installation of plugins, CD/DVD drive settings and video support parameters.

       If run as xine-bugreport, it will produce a terse system description and guide you through the process of reporting a bug. This is the pre-
       ferred way to report xine bugs, as it's easier for you and provides the developers with a more complete bugreport.

OPTIONS

       The  program  follows  usual  GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').  A summary of options are included
       below.  For a complete description, see README and FAQ in /usr/share/doc/xine-ui or on the xine home page.

       -h, --help
	      Show summary of options and version number.

       The remaining options, labelled XINE-CHECK options: when listed with "xine-check --help", are explained here.

       -q, --quiet
	      Only give a single one-line messages, even if problems are found.  Normally xine-check provides hints for  every	problem  found	to
	      help solve the problem.

       -v, --verbose
	      Enable extended output describing each check in detail, which produces a kind of frequently asked questions (FAQ) list.

       -B, --batch
	      Turn  off  pause	after  long  messages.	Normally xine-check waits for confirmation after a problem was found or a long message was
	      printed.

       -b, --bug
	      Produce a bug report. This is the same as calling xine-bugreport directly.

BUGS

       none, of course ;-) Well, there are surely a few of those. You can probably best ask for support (and report bugs) on our mailing  list	at
       <xine-user@lists.sf.net>.
