you could let the xine-lib packages install corresponding desktop files for the mime-types they support. okular (document viewer) has a similar problem. Depending on which features you enable during configure the list of supported mime types varies. The way okular solves this is to install separate desktop files [1]. If you enable support for format x, it installs a corresponding desktop file. A similar approach should work for xine-lib.
