Can anyone get any audio to accompany the streaming Quicktime video at http://www.apple.com/trailers? I have never been able to get either FC1 or FC2 set up to properly play those video streams.
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
I just finished watching and hearing the trailers for Spiderdude II and Collateral. This machine is an ASUS A7N8X Deluxe ver 2 m/b with AMD Athlon 2600+ running FC1.

Mplayer crud is:
[root@mavis rj]# rpm -qa | grep mplay

mplayer-mencoder-0.92-0.lvn.1.1

Obviously, these came from the livna repository and I'm thinking I haven't updated them since installing last November.
