After upgrade to the Fedora Core 10 and Fedora Core 12, I was surprised when yum install mplayer didn. If all you want to do is blank the screen, as opposed to. How to install mplayer in Fedora Core 12. How To Install Mapleroyals. (with some tweaks on How to install mplayer in Fedora Core 18). MPlayer should install without problems. Subtitle Editor is a tool for editing subtitle (srt). How to create a Linux Mint persistent live USB drive using UNetbootin. Choosing one for use with Linux, however.
MPlayer is one of the best multimedia players ever written for GNU/Linux (yep it's also available for MS windows and Mac OSX, etc). The most powerful part of MPlayer is actually the command line version which you can start by entering 'mplayer' in your Terminal once installed. There is actually nothing that you cannot do with MPlayer. Do you want to correct audio/video syncing issues?
Or subtitle loading issues?, adding several effects to enhance both audio and video files, etc. It is pretty darn amazing. But the sad thing is that since it's a command-line based one. Almost all of those are hidden in the official GUI version, which is basically a small representation of the what the actual/underline command-line 'engine' is capable of.
Anyhow, after installing Fedora Core 15 (with the Gnome3 desktop, hurray!, or maybe not:/ ) you, which is basically a graphical front-end for installing almost any proprietary under FC. But if you want the old school approach of starting your Terminal and entering command, well lets do it in your way then:). If you haven't done already, then lets first enable the RPMFusion repository which gives you a lot of the proprietary software pre-builds for Fedora Core.
To do that, open your Terminal and enter the below command. Su -c 'yum localinstall --nogpgcheck Now let's use 'yum' and install MPlayer (including the GUI) in Fedora Core 15. Yum install mplayer-guiThat's should do it, enjoy!
@ Anonymous, After entering which command (the first one with the 'su -c' or the second one??) If you're having troubles entering the whole 'su -c' command which sometimes can occur due to 'spaces' while copying, etc thus in that case, just use the below commands. Su yum localinstall --nogpgcheck And then then next below.
Yum localinstall --nogpgcheck Then use the second command in the post to install mplayer (ahh, finally:D). OR you can also use the below method as well. First just copy and past the below URL in your Web browsers URL field in Fedora 15 This should openup the package manager and just follow the on screen instructions. Then do the same with the below URL as well Now use the second command in the post to finish things up. Hope this helped.
Mplayer Installation procedure is the same as is in my post “How to install mplayer in Fedora Core 12” but with some tweaks at the end. It seems that RPM Fusion repository didn’t create needed symbolic links in /etc/pki/rpm-gpg directory.
After symbolic link was created manually, mplayer / vlc installation has been finished successfully. OK, first it’s needed to accomplish all steps from post. At the last step (when you will try to install myplayer or vlc), the following error will be displayed: warning: /var/cache/yum/i386/18/rpmfusion-free/packages/live555-0-0.38.2012.10.18.fc18.i686.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID 982e0a7c: NOKEY Retrieving key from file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-18-i386 GPG key retrieval failed: [Errno 14] Could not open/read file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-18-i386 The fix is easy. As root user go to /etc/pki/rpm-gpg directory and create symbolic link: # su to root user su # change to /etc/pki/rpm-gpg directory cd /etc/pki/rpm-gpg # create symbolic link ln -s RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-18-primary RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-18-i386 This is fix for 32bit installation. If you have 64bit Fedora then execute the following ln command: ln -s RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-18-primary RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-18-x86_64 After symbolic link is created, run yum install vlc (or mplayer-gui) again and installation will continue from the last stop point.
