  == Multimedia Players ==
  
- The default installation of Fedora Core includes '''Rhythmbox''', '''Totem''' and '''Helix Player''' for media playback.  The Fedora Core and Fedora Extras repositories include many other popular programs such as the '''XMMS''' player and KDE's '''amaroK'''.  Both GNOME and KDE have a selection of players that can be used with a variety of formats.  Third parties may offer additional programs to handle other formats.

  Fedora Core also takes full advantage of the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) sound system.  Many programs can play sound simultaneously, which was once difficult on Linux systems.  When all multimedia software is configured to use ALSA for sound support, this limitation disappears.  For more information about ALSA, visit the project website at http://www.alsa-project.org/.  Users may still experience issues when multiple users log into the system.  Depending upon hardware and software configurations, multiple users may not be able to use the sound hardware simultaneously.
