mplayer can be downloaded from www.mplayerhq.com. On the Downloads page there is a RPM download for RedHat/Fedora. This RPM will install mplayer on your computer. This is the command line version only as far as I can tell. I am still trying to compile it on FC4 since it has GCC 4.0 the config script fails with out a little tweaking. I am missing the GTK library needed for the GUI version. If anyone knows where to download the GTK library needed please let me know.

To edit fstab do the following
open a new terminal window from the menu
#su
password:
#gedit /etc/fstab
when you have finished and closed the editor you come back to the terminal
#exit

FC 4 hasnt included with its distro the xmms package this time that gud to play mp3 you can get teh rpm or tar file of xmms from many websites... To play video Mplayer is teh best i must say but you can try using Xine as well , you can get that from www.xinehq.de
And onething to tell you you cant mount ntfs partitions on Fedora unless you edit the kernel because since the kernel 2.6 they have stopped support to ntfs systems Fat32 can eb easily done...
