What media player is avaiable now on openSUSE11,1

English Applications
1

I searched for mplayer but it is no longer avaiable, searching for other
players, there is Kplayer when trying to install it, it complains about
the mplayer provider
So what application can be used to run mpeg files
Thanks for your collaboration

I got these:

mplayerplug-in-3.55-0.pm.1
MPlayer-1.0rc2_r27637-3.pm.3

From the Packman repo – they’re still available

I’ve used MPlayer for a long time, but IMHO Vlc is a way better -
playlist manager, DVD playback, etc. Also available from Packman.

Yeah. I LOVE vlc, but it certainly doesn’t have as many options as
Songbird.
And developers for OpenSuse messed up the sources for oneClick-Install.
That’s why it sucks at the moment.

Just for the guys who don’t know VLC yet: It even plays broken files
and it naturally comes with all necessary codecs.

All about the lure. ^^

With that wrap, I’ve decided to try VLC and see how it goes, thanks.

I have an old collection of Fluid Mechanics videos that I used to
recommend as class aid to my students. VLC was able to play most of them
but not all. From the real player web page I downloaded an rpm package
and with these two programmes installed on my computer I can play them
all.
I guess no one programme is complete, i.e., you need at least two media
players.
Any way, I once again thank all for their helpful comments.<:)
