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
       preferred 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>.
