Work in html isn't a question.

I have no idea what you are saying, but I do know that you should learn to use google.com.

afei the Kaffeine frontend for xine has a plugin that enables you to play streams from web pages

Thoreau i think you should learn how to have respect for others in the forum.

if everyone uses google to find an anwser there would be no websites like this forum giving one.

@afei_622:

which Linux distribution are you using? (eg, Mandriva, Suse, etc...)

afei_622 · 05-16-2005, 02:05 AM

i use redhat Linux 9.0
i update kernel to 2.4.20-31.9
my machine is Dell Insprion 8600 notebook

You can get Mplayer and codecs here.

There will be a .rpm package for your distro too. Although i have had better luck with Mplayer compiling it myself. the Mplayer packages for FreeBSD seem to work perfectly and no dependency problems.

You might want to upgrade from Redhat 9 to Fedora 3 0r 4 or Centos 4, up to you. They are all Redhat types.
I don't know if you can get a .rpm package for RH9 now. I think that it is no longer supported.

If you decide to conpile it for your self you will need to have gcc and related installed.
