Installing VLC
 

Hi

I am new to Linux, I used it 20 years ago and have forgot all I ever new. I have installed Fedora 22 and is working fine (I think). I have tried to install VLC Media Player using the command:

sudo dnf install vlc

and I get the following:

Np package available
Error: unable to find a match.

I am using some instructions I downloaded from the intetnet "Things to do after installing Fedora. I am at a loss of what to do. NEED SOME HELP.

Thanks

Ed

Since Fedora uses Red Hat's package manager,would the command not be something like # yum-install vlc?

Hi econnelly...

Welcome to the forum :)

This has been a tough one for other Fedora 22 users, too. However, the solution listed in post #24 here seems to have resolved this for others. :)

Regards...

as above rpmfusion is NOW the main repo in fedora ( and HAS BEEN )
NOW Fedora 22 moved to using " dnf" and stopped using " yum" ,but that is a small change

even the old Mjmwired guide for Fedora 19
lists RPMFusion

this has not changed for the lase few years
just using dnf has


http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/

and install the Fedora 22 repo
"rpmfusion-free-release-22.noarch.rpm"

Welcome aboard.
