how to play audio and video on fedora

How to play audio video music files on linux (VLC mplayer )


playing audio video on fedora is kinda easy work to do you need to just follow these commands and in end you will have number of player with which you can play almost all video format on your fedora operating system


Fedora is not shipped with audio video codec like mp3 or avi so first of all you need some repositories so copy and paste into your terminal the below commands


[ismail@localhost ~]$ su -c 'rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm'

[ismail@localhost ~]$ su -c 'rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm'


[ismail@localhost ~]$ su -c 'rpm -Uvh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release.rpm'

Downloading and installing codec from livna


[ismail@localhost ~]$ su -c 'yum install gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-bad-extras gstreamer-plugins-ugly xine-lib-extras-nonfree totem-xine'

That is what you want it now others are optional choose your favourite player or install all

  2. You know if you would contribute to existing projects that document how to setup and configure things in Fedora it would help the community a lot more than having documents all over the web that will become dated after you go on to another distro.

    It might even help the existing community think better of you.
