ev'ry time i try installing mplayer (with yum centos5)
i get:
Error: Missing Dependency: libmpcdec.so.3 is needed by package mplayer
Error: Missing Dependency: liblirc_client.so.0 is needed by package mplayer
Error: Missing Dependency: liblzo.so.1 is needed by package mplayer
Error: Missing Dependency: libaa.so.1 is needed by package mplayer

Search for the libraries without the final numbers (eg libmpcdec.so) download them and then install them with "rpm -ivh <package name>.rpm" (minus the quotes).

And please use better thread titles in future - you need to briefly describe your problem in the title.

That said, welcome to LQ.
