Which repos do people > generally use? Why is this so complicated? You may want to check out medley-package-config, an rpm containing apt/yum config files for a set of repos that mostly work nicely together (including the repos at http://atrpms.net/repos/). You will need to upgrade apt/yum to rpms that don't carry the config files with them (otherwise you get conflicts with the medley-package-config): http://atrpms.net/name/medley-package-config/ http://atrpms.net/name/apt/ http://atrpms.net/name/yum/ http://atrpms.net/install.html > I did 'yum install mplayer-skins' and now i have the following installed: > mplayer-skins-1.3-0.lvn.2.2 > mplayer-0.92.1-0.lvn.5.2 > mplayer-gui-0.92.1-0.lvn.5.2 > Well thats all fine and dandy, but no win32codecs are installed.
