Question Plugins for Movie Player in Fedora 13


I have Fedora 13 installed on my laptop. Whenever I try to play any movie file, through Movie Player, it gives me the following error.


Movie Player requirs additional plugins to decode this file

The following plugins are required:
* MPEG-1 Layer 3(MP3) decoder
* XVID MPEG-4 decode

Do you want to search for these now?


Once I click on the search button, it searches for the plugins, and after a while prompts with the error message that the plugins couldn't be found.

Where will I find the plugins? Could some one help me out, so that I can play the music and movie files.

Thanks in advance

Smile [SOLVED] Plugins for Movie Player in Fedora 13

1) I enabled access to the free and nonfree repository by downloading the rpm from the below links

http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/...ble.noarch.rpm

http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfr...ble.noarch.rpm

2) First installed the free one, and then the nonfree one.

3) Then opened up console, using root, and type the below command

yum install vlc

( Which is nothing but downloading the vlc file from the internet and finally installing it )

One done, now I can play all music and video file using VLC media player.
