I'm assuming that you mean movies in the mpeg format?


Red Hat comes with it's own mpeg player. I forget the name of it and I'm currently using my Windows box so I can't look it up. You'll find it under Red Hat/Multimedia using the KDE desktop..


Hope this is of some help.

Personally, I'd go with VLC for playing DVDs (if that's what you mean) or Xine for mpeg/avi/etc files...

Xine can be found here, and VLC (Video Lan Client) can be found here.

Maybe it's time to use KDE desktop...

hi there guys!
thanks a lot for the replies..ah! yes protocol,though not a frequent user of the KDE or GNOME ,i do occasionally do jump into the GUI..i did try the player that comes with GNOME..however it i think supports only the MPEG format..i want something that is not tie dto just one format..
anyway i have a lot of links mow..thanks everyone
