A Media Player for KDE. http://kaffeine.sourceforge.net
Table of Contents
You'll find all available player parts in Settings-Player Engine.
This is the default, xine based, full featured player part for Kaffeine. Play almost everything...
xine is a free multimedia player. It plays back CDs, DVDs, and VCDs. It also decodes multimedia files like AVI, MOV, WMV, and MP3 from local disk drives, and displays multimedia streamed over the Internet. It interprets many of the most common multimedia formats available - and some of the most uncommon formats, too. Detailed info about xine features you can find at: http://www.xinehq.de
