For legal and philosophical reasons the base Fedora Core installation does not include software that is patent encumbered, non-free or otherwise proprietary. However third party repositories do supply such software (including mplayer, xine, and mpeg players) which will run on Fedora Core. See http://stanton-finley.net/fedora_core_4_installation_notes.html for instructions about installing some of this additional software. Stanton Finley http://stanton-finley.net/
