I have just installed centos 4 and am doing an upgrade to the 4.2 version now, should I enable any extra repositories in CENTOS as you would have to in fedora. If yes what are reliable repos and how do I enable them ?
will this method work to install the mplayer codecs in centos
download from here
http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/rel...050412.tar.bz2 ,
then untar/decompress it
tar xjvf all-20050412.tar.bz2
and change the name of the folder to "codecs", move it to /usr/lib/.
mv all-20050412 /usr/lib/codecs
After that, make a "win32" folder link to it with
ln -s /usr/lib/codecs /usr/lib/win32
