I hate to say that I answered my own question but I did. I have
win32codecs.tar.bz2 that I did the command:  
"bzip2 -df win32codecs.tar.bz2"  to turn it into win32codecs.tar
then I did "tar -xvf win32codecs.tar" to uncompress it, and then I did a
"mkdir /usr/lib/win32" and after it made a win32codecs directory I then
looked for wmvdmod.dll and did a "cd wincodecs"
once in that dir I did "mv wmvdmod.dll /usr/lib/win32". It now is
playing Windows Media like a champ! I got my file from:
 http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/
Latest Win32 codecpack
Im not going to install all of the codecs yet im going to install them
as needed. It seems some may conflict?

Thanks and sorry I bothered the list it was kinda off topic. It is part
configuring Fedora.
