Hi all
When I start kaffeine, an error dialog pops up,
saying "Loading of player part 'xine_part' failed." The "Details"
window says: "xine_part.desktop not found in search path." I dismiss
the dialog and kaffeine starts, but it neither plays movies or works in dvb mode.
This appens with kaffeine 0.71 and 0.82. Also building from original source.
I'm using gnome 2.14. xine-lib e xine-ui are installed on system!

thanks

Yeah, I'm getting the same issue too and so-far have drawn a blank as to how to fix it :\

Fixed.

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-341948-highlight-kaffeine+player+engine.html

Code:

cp /usr/share/applications/kaffeine.desktop /usr/kde/3.5/share/applications/.
cp /usr/share/services/kaffeine_part.desktop /usr/share/kde/3.5/share/services/.


Works fine now :)

Humm, are the files there somewhere?

Code:

locate -u ; locate kaffeine.desktop


Perhaps try deleting the config file too so it re-looks for the files?

I also deleted kaffeine and re-emerged after having installed the xine lib and engine, that seemed to help as it created the icon in Gnome properly whereas first time it didn't, maybe worth doing?

Just for those guys searching the board:

Errormessage (Kaffeine 0.7.1-r2):
Code:
player_part not found


Errormessage (Kaffeine 0.8.2-r1):
Code:
xine_part not found


Copy the files, in some cases the path must be corrected:
Code:
cp /usr/share/services/xine_part.desktop /usr/kde/3.5/share/services/
cp /usr/share/applications/kde/kaffeine.desktop /usr/kde/3.5/share/applications/

For me it was caused by https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=167948 - if your login shell is csh/tcsh try switching to the masked version of tcsh
