Hi, The reason I installed the 2006 because it gives me.rpm extension and it was easy to install (rpm -ivh mplayer-codecs-20061022-1.x86_64.rpm). To be honest, I don't even know what this command does rpm -ivh mplayer-codecs-20061022-1.x86_64.rpm? Does it unpack the codecs source files, copy and paste them somewhere? If yes in which directory?

This file has.bz2 extension and I don't know how to install it (all-20110131.tar.bz2). Do I have to unzip it and put the codecs files in a directory or I should better ask to which directory?

You are trying to install a rpm for a different OS. That will not work you can not mix fedora with red hat ( or cent) REMOVE ALL AND EVERY file you installed for fedora And do not blindly just do things, read about it first and use your head ( think first) this is not brain surgery BUT you DO have to THINK ( use what you have) Personally i do not install multimedia programs on RHEL it is meant for the office or server,and is not a good home system However once you have navigated the minefield ( yes it is one) and have the multimedia installed AND NOT IN CONFLICT with the rest of the OS it is stable. How To Install Top Five Phpbb Style.

Just that it is a royal pain to set up in the first place and NOT kill the install. Install the rpmforge and cent-extras repos then install and configure yum-Priorities plugin VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!!!
