I'm an Mplayer fan myself, though I must admit that I've never tried Xine. I've also never been overly impressed by the GUI mode for Mplayer. It doesn't work well with my window manager. Of course, I use an odd-ball wm (pwm), so that's not suprising. Anyhow, Xine is probably a lot less picky about who it will be friendly with than Mplayer. But Mplayer will play just about any video file you can throw at it. I have had very little trouble installing Mplayer in the past, but I have yet to try it on Fedora. Its in the queue of stuff I want to get to, but it may have to wait until after Core 2 is installed. Mitch
