What i did was rpm the package (rpm -Uvh mplayer-1.0pre7try2-2.i386.rpm) and it was successfully installed... now what? I checked the online documentation, and it only talks about compiling the source code, do I have to do this?
I also have fonts, codecs and a skin to install as well...
Sorry bout being a noob

To mplayer, use the greysector repository:
http://rpm.greysector.net/
Xine is perfectly able to play .wmv, .mpg & .avi files. Regarding .mov
files, I have never tried them.
