Re: freshrpms.net and mp3/dvd playback

[Aaron Scott <scott aaron abc net au>]

If you check the list of rpm's for Fedora Core 3 there is a group of related libraries.  I use totem for DVD playback.  When I install that ( and it's dependencies ) I also install the following:

libdvdcss
libdvdnav
libdvdplay
libdvdread

You need libdvdcss to do the decryption and libdvdnav to do the menu navigation.  Although I think totem uses code from Ogle for that.  Any how, if you install those listed libraries and a DVD capable player ( Xine, Totem, mplayer, ogle ) you should be pretty much there.

Let me know how you go.

Cheers

Aaron
