Mplayer dependency hell!
 
I finnaly got my sound card working in Linux with ALSA drivers for Fedora! :D

I can listen to all of my mp3s in XMMS, but I use iTunes in Windows. I hear that Mplayer for Linux plays the AAC (.m4p) that iTunes uses. I got the rpm I needed to install Mplayer (mplayer-1.0-pre3_27.rhfc1.at.i386.rpm), and went to install it and... DEPENDENCY HELL.

Is there a way to get around all of these dependencies, or do I have to install them one by one? :mad:

Would it be eaisier just to use WINE to run iTunes for Windows on Linux? It would also be better to do this, since I download songs on iTunes also.

just install from source, you should require NOTHING but the main package to play dvd's etc...
