The results I got when I ran xine-check:

Please be patient, this script may take a while to run...
[ good ] you're using Linux, doing specific tests
[ good ] looks like you have a /proc filesystem mounted.
[ good ] You seem to have a reasonable kernel version (2.6.10-5-386)
[ good ] intel compatible processor, checking MTRR support
[ good ] you have MTRR support and there are some ranges set.
[ good ] found the player at /usr/bin/xine
[ good ] /usr/bin/xine is in your PATH
[ hint ] No xine-config found. Assuming xine from Debian package
         The xine-config script can be used to deternime some file
locations
         used by xine-lib, but you don't have such a script on your
system.
         However, it looks like you installed xine from the Debian
packages.
         So I'll just guess that you are using the standard locations.
         If you want me to be sure about those file locations, you can
install
         the 'libxine-dev' package, which contains xine-config. However,
this
         package is not really needed to run xine...

[ good ] plugin directory /usr/lib/xine/plugins exists.
[ good ] found unknown plugin: *.so
[OUCH!!] There are no input plugins.
         xine needs at least one input plugin, but none is installed.
         You should probably reinstall xine-lib...
         press <enter> to continue...

[OUCH!!] There are no demux plugins.
         xine needs at least one demux plugin, but none is installed.
         You should probably reinstall xine-lib...
         press <enter> to continue...

[OUCH!!] There are no decoder plugins.
         xine needs at least one decoder plugin, but none is installed.
         You should probably reinstall xine-lib...
         press <enter> to continue...

[OUCH!!] There are no video_out plugins.
         xine needs at least one video_out plugin, but none is
installed.
         You should probably reinstall xine-lib...
         press <enter> to continue...

[OUCH!!] There are no audio_out plugins.
         xine needs at least one audio_out plugin, but none is
installed.

[ good ] skin directory /usr/share/xine/skins exists.
[ good ] found logo in /usr/share/xine/skins
[ good ] I even found some skins.
[ good ] /dev/cdrom points to /dev/hdc
[ good ] /dev/dvd points to /dev/hdc
[ good ] DMA is enabled for your DVD drive
[ good ] found xvinfo: X-Video Extension version 2.2
[ good ] your Xv extension supports YV12 overlays (improves MPEG
performance)
[ good ] your Xv extension supports YUY2 overlays
[ good ] Xv ports:  YUY2 YV12 I420 UYVY

I'm sure I installed xine and all its plugins (Windows codecs, etc.)
properly (using this site's instructions:
http://ubuntuguide.org/#xine-ui ). So, should I try compiling xine from
source, or reinstall it using those instructions, or what?
