Just tried to play a movie/DVD and Totem (what automatically popped up when I inserted the DVD) said it needed plug-ins... it didn't say which plug-ins. The website listed in the help page no longer exists. I have four of the gstreamer packages and libdvdcss installed, but I guess there's something more needed. Anyone know? tia for the tips. -- War is a failure of the imagination. --William Blake

If you have the RPMForge repo enabled, you can easily install VLC or, even better SMPlayer.

Get rid of Totem and use VLC and MPlayer instead. They're both in the RPMForge repos. http://www.microlinux.fr/captures/vlc.html http://www.microlinux.fr/captures/mplayer.html (I'm using a customized no-GUI-version of MPlayer, hence the missing interface...)
