Hi,
I tried to play a DVD movie on Fedora 7. It complains that Totem is
missing some plugins and ask to install the plugins. It does not
mention what plugins. What should I do to fix this problem?
DVD playback requires an MPEG2 decoder. MPEG2 decoders are under patent
protection, and can't be freely {open source} licensed, hence they
aren't included in Fedora:

That said, software repositories like freshrpms.net rpmforge livna
atrpms may carry packages that help with DVD playback.
