Hello everyone....



How to install a window media player in redhat linux...i have wine package but it gives an error while i am installing it.Any other way to install it?????

Thankyou

Why do you need to use windows media player on Linux? Linux has much better players that can play any format. Try mplayer and vlc. Both can play almost any file format / DVD / CD / movies and music. Are there any specific reasons for using windows media player under Linux?

Download links

VLC - DAG: vlc RPM packages for Red Hat, CentOS and Fedora

Mplayer - DAG: mplayer RPM packages for Red Hat, CentOS and Fedora

Hello...


not any specific reason for window media player..i installed the vlc through wine(.exe)..but it didn't work...


Thanks for the link...

Wine for windows program. Just download vlc rpm file and install it. It is a native version for Linux.

i have downloaded the vlc rpm package... but it didnt install ,gives the error of dependencies... and i dont know about the dependencies..

You need to configure RPM repo see following url

Once configured just use yum command to install package and all dependencies automatically.
