Thanks Steven and Tim;
As I have said, anything to do with pictures, video, audio or sound is
not my strong suit.

If I am to download mplayer, could some one give me a quick
explanation why I am doing that, why doesn't totem and gstreamer do
the same thing, and where is the safest place (i.e. repos) to get
it? Does it self-install as a plugin or do I have to configure?
for FC6 goodies, i've found this site is helpful:

as for the totem that's shipped with FC, maybe it's just me but i've
found it to be as useful as a condom machine at the vatican. i just
got used to removing it immediately and replacing it with totem-xine
from the livna repo if that's what you really want.
i've found that mplayer seems to do everything i need.
