I have installed mplayer* via yum.
The video comes through just fine. There is no sound, however.
I know that it *can* be done on a Linux machine, because I saw the trailers with audio playing just fine on my friend's Mandrake 10 box that had mplayer, mplayer-gui, and mplayerplugin installed with urpmi.
Now there *are* some video files that play just fine with the audio in my Mozilla browser, for example:
http://www.ntk.net/media/dancemonkeyboy.mpg http://www.flamingmailbox.com/maccomedy/movies/wincrash.html
So I have the problem narrowed to those in-browser videos that are Quicktime streams.
I want to learn how to get my Fedora machines to play them as well as the Mandrake machine could!
Thanks, Clint
