You can try using the "at" command to delay the launch of xine for a few
seconds while firefox finishes loading.

Subject: [tclug-list] Running X programs from a script

I'm starting an X session and trying to get a video playing on top of
a web page.  Here's the excerpt form my startup script:

/usr/bin/firefox http://127.0.0.1/ &
/usr/bin/xine -G 950x750+-50+-50 -I -n --loop --no-splash --no-logo
/videos/comm.m3u

Now what's happening is that Xine is loading faster so Firefox ends up
on top of Xine.  Is there a way to set which program is on top from
the script?
