You haven't done anything wrong, you just need to install win32-codecs, lame, and theora along with mplayer. You might also want mplayer-gui.

Germ is correct Sasha, you just need some dependencies. Download and install these RPMs then mplayer should install just fine. Smile

Thank you guys. I was finally able to play a video in linux, but I think MPlayer has a problem with my soundcard just like xmms Rolling Eyes
Oh Yeah, and where do I stick the skins??
