i already install real player in my Core 5. The problem is the player cannot read avi format. That is the latest player for linux. How to solve this problem?

welcome to Fedora... I assume you knew you coldn't play mp3's etc...? Of course it can read avi's as an avi is just a container format. it'll be the independent divx and mp3 streams inside it that it can't decode. go to the livna yum repository and add them as a standard yum repo. they include all the stuff fedora are too scared to include. install mplayer from there, or similar, and it'll all work just fine.
