redhat 9.0 and mplayer
Hello all,
i am new to linux i just install redhat 9.0 how ever i have a nettlesome issue i cant seem to overcome installing mplayer i looked at the site that supposedly contains documentation it refered to an illusive readme file i cant find... i look for 3 hrs could not make any sense out of the poor documentaion , the only thing i deduce out of it, is i need one of these two files mplayer-common-1.0pre4-1.i386.rpm or mplayer-gui-1.0pre4-1.i386.rpm, i dont even know if that is what i need can some one please point me towards the right direction or even a rough step of what i need to do to get thei going... thanks in advance. i also try doing a search on line i that was not helpful either..... |
you need this three packages for mplayer to work
mplayer-common-1.0pre2-1 mplayer-skin-default-1.0-2 mplayer-gui-1.0pre2-1 download rpm for version and install it in one go that is rpm -ivh mplayer-* |
As mardanian said. You need to get all of these files. Try this link http://greysector.rangers.eu.org/mplayer.html You have all the instructions here on what files you need and how to install them. Just stick to the instructions and you will be watching movies in no time. :)

you need lame-libs file
Did you download it from the link I provided? It's there a little lower under the files for mplayer it says lame-libs..... Find it. You obviously don't have it. |
yep you definitely need lame for working mplayer :)
