Re: How to install VLC Media Player in Fedora 8
This URL has the steps to install it.
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-fedora.html If you have the rpm, then become superuser: "su -" then "rpm -vhU <rpm-name-you-downloaded>" will install. If there are any missing libraries you will have to load those first. I would use the setup from the above URL, because the fedora people put installs in different places than the generic rpm does. If your rpm is a source rpm, programs and libaries are "not standard". |

Re: How to install VLC Media Player in Fedora 8
Got to this URL. About 3/4 the way down is how to install VLC. The notes say there are a lot of dependencies, but yum knows how to take care of those.
