I decided to compile and archive with multimedia packages as there was a request for the same. I hadn’t done so before as I thought there would not be any demand (and I think there still isn’t), anyway, for the sake of completion.
I have changed my approach a little when compared to previous compilations. This is a part of my ongoing effort to try and improve the ease of installation.
This time I installed test systems using KDE live and GNOME live CDs.This ensures that users who install from live CDs are not left out,unlike previous releases of mine where having the Open SuSE DVD was a prerequisite.
Another change I have implemented is incorporating libxine (for KDE) and gstreamer plugins (for GNOME).
Packages:
kchmviewer
a program to view CHM files
mplayer
a multimedia player
mplayer-plugin
firefox plugin for mplayer
audacious
a winamp look-alike
k3b
CD/DVD writing
k3b-codecs
multimedia plugins for K3b
k3b-lang
K3b language pack
sox
devede
DVD authoring
audacity
A sound file editor
avidemux
A demuxer, similar to VirtualDub
ffmpeg
CLI video encoding tool
transcode
CLI video encoding tool
ntfs-config
mount ntfs partitions easily
vlc
a multimedia player
libdvdcss

w32

libxine

Extract the archive to a folder called August2008 in your home folder.
Note: KDE4 ark seems to have some issues??? The Extract function of the gui in Ark does not seem to work, at least for me. You can work around this by clicking on the archive to open it in a window, press Ctrl and A on your keyboard to select all the rpms, minimise this window, open your home folder, create the August2008 folder, and paste the contents into it; then it works fine.
While I appreciate your gratitude, I request any more users to refrain from thanking me on this thread. This is to prevent my next follow up post from going to page 2 or 3.
Thank you everyone.

Do these contain any of the older version of transcode? As far as I know the newest version of transcode (1.1.0-0.pm.2) won’t work with K3b to rip DVD’s.
I need this!
