Hi!
You'll need XVID codecs installed. Try it: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en...decs.html#xvid
You may also install codec bundle which will make it able to playback any video you want: http://www3.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/rel...071007.tar.bz2

Look into my thread about codecs. It was very useful for me:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...lack12-606798/
You can use that codecs source, but you'll need to compile them for RHEL. Don't use SlackBuild scripts - they are useful for Slackers only.
