Hi.
I am Fedora 7 installed.
I tried to install xmms and mplayer. But all of them have dependecy issues.
and i cant seem to find those dependent packages in my fedora dvd.
If you have a good Internet connection, then you could use 'yum'
to download and install the packages along with their dependencies.
Download MPlayer from
http://rpm.livna.org/ repositories. Infact,
you can download and install the "Fedora Core 7 repository RPM"
from their site, and use 'yum install mplayer' and you should be
ready to go.
can you guys suggest some media player which may be installed
without hassles in fedora 7
I'd prefer downloading mplayer source tarball from one of the
mirrors listed at
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html
and build it. Its easily and works without much of a hassle.
For a good audio player with a GUI - download, build and install
audacious from this site:
http://audacious-media-player.org/
You can also try 'yum install audacious' after adding the
rpm.livna.org to your yum repositories - if you dont want to
build from source on your own.
Cheers!
