Gstreamer requires additional +python plugins to extend video and audio capabilities. + +For good codec support there is gst-plugins-good, gst-plugins-bad, gst-ffmpeg and +gst-plugins-ugly. + +Xine is the other video renderer. The option to change renderer can also be made +after installation in the Video->Options->Playback menu. + +Xine uses the "xv" driver by default. If you find instability issues with "xv" +then you can try "xshm" or "opengl". You can test out the driver by running from +the command line and passing: + +# miro --set=renderer=xine --set=xine-driver=xshm + +or, alternatively + +# miro --set=renderer=xine --set=xine-driver=opengl + +These settings will stay persistent on next program launch. + +Note: The linux version of Miro doesn't support the flash-plugin, so video from sites +like Hulu and Youtube won't display inside the Miro player. But they can be launched +in an external browser.
