Hi;
I have read and reread.... all kinds of info on mplayer codecs.
Simple question(s).
1) WHERE do I install the codec(s)? Is it just a matter of a file copy?
2) WHICH codec do I need for wmv, avi, and mpeg files? (The mplayer
site lists all kinds of details on so many codecs! But no info for a
newbie.)
3) Do I *need* to involve Firefox in the mix?
This, on FC5 32-bit, 2ghz machine.
Thanks in advance.

Nat:
download either the all-codecs or the required-codecs packages from
mplayer-hq. Make the directory /usr/local/lib/win32 and using either
the tar command or the archive tool extract the files to that directory.
That should be all you need.
