what is a good program for playing quicktime trailers in fedora

cuco76 · 05-02-2004, 01:03 AM

I am looking for a program to play quicktime movies within fedora. Any ideas? I have searched around and I think xine and mplayer might work but I did not find any rpm's. Any other ideas would be welcomed

Thanks,

MPlayer found at http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/news.html.

You'll have to add the codecs for quicktime, let me dig up my notes on it and I'll post in a few.

Oh, as for rpms - doing it from source is rather easy.

Actually this documentation is better than mine:
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/install.html

"Download the Win32 codecs from our codecs page and install them to /usr/local/lib/codecs BEFORE compiling MPlayer, otherwise no Win32 support will be compiled!"
