Plugins for watching DVD, SVCD, VCD, Divx, Xvid with totem-xine?

[Peter Simpson]

Although, I "past performance is no indication of future expectations", I have 
always used the Marillat repositories for all the Media stuff.

Recently they moved but the relevant sources.list entry is:

deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ testing main

If you "apt-get update" after inserting this, then everything you may need for 
any media format is available.

Someone please shout if there are any known problems with this.

Regards,
TreeBoy
