How do I install Kaffeine or VLC in F10 Preview?

sideways · #1 24th November 2008, 01:01 PM

OK, I'm in a fix here, need to play some disney cartoons this afternoon on a laptop here which I am booting from a F10 Preview USB stick. Now usually I' just enable livna and do

Code:

yum install kaffeine xine-lib*

or 'yum install vlc' to get the media players set up. But in F10 preview I've enabled rpmfusion rawhide repos and it doesn't work (Well, it installs but neither vlc or kaffeine play anything)

what am I doing wrong?? i know the final is released tomorrow, but I need this working today, cheers

Code:

[root@localhost ~]# yum repolist
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
repo id              repo name                                status  
rawhide              Fedora - Rawhide - Developmental package enabled :  11,416
rpmfusion-free-rawhi RPM Fusion for Fedora 9.93 - Free - Rawh enabled :     324
rpmfusion-nonfree-ra RPM Fusion for Fedora 9.93 - Non-Free -  enabled :     142

cheers leigh, I was using old rpmfusion rpms stored on the usb stick so that was worth a try, I updated the fedora release via yum as you suggested, then to install rpmfusion I used:

Code:

rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm

Then did 'yum install kaffeine xine-lib-extras*'

It still didn't play any videos, in the end I had to copy the all-* codecs pack from http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/ to /usr/lib/codecs. I don't recall having to do this before.

I wonder if the xine-lib-nonfree codecs pack from livna has not been fully transferred to xine-lib-extras* in rpmfusion?

Well, I hope it will be easier in the final release tomorrow

Try ( xine-lib-nonfree has been renamed for rpmfusion )

Code:

su
yum install xine-lib-extras-freeworld

Yeah, I installed both xine-lib-extras and xine-lib-extras-freeworld, but it still won't play any videos. I spoke too soon about the mplayer codecs fixing the problem, it only fixed for one obscure divx encoded file I had.

I'm not sure what else to try.

I'm giving up on this now, I remembered the password for the windows (urgh) login on the laptop so I'll have to use that (I'll wash myself well tonight)

Code:

yum install vlc

when all else fails compile mplayer from source and gett the all codecs, works *almost* everytime. that things seems to play everything

Would you believe the problem was selinux related (aargh), I think this problem persists in the final release too,

Code:

yum install vlc

Code:

vlc -vvv -no-plugin-cache
