So I went and installed: mplayer-1.0.0-0.20050916.1.fc4.ut mplayer-libs-1.0.0-0.20050916.1.fc4.ut And this is what happened. When I opened a movie trailer I got by e-mail I got the sound but not the picture. Then I went to www.css.com and tried to play their video. An error message that it could not find Windows media player. So what do I do now.? -- ======================================================================= None of our men are "experts." We have most unfortunately found it necessary to get rid of a man as soon as he thinks himself an expert -- because no one ever considers himself expert if he really knows his job. A man who knows a job sees so much more to be done than he has done, that he is always pressing forward and never gives up an instant of thought to how good and how efficient he is. Thinking always ahead, thinking always of trying to do more, brings a state of mind in which nothing is impossible. The moment one gets into the "expert" state of mind a great number of things become impossible. -- From Henry Ford Sr., "My Life and Work" ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University telephone: (210)-999-7484
