A Movie system for FC6 and F7

[Karl Larsen]

            VLC

    Last thing first. I put a DVD of the Honeymooners that has not ever 
been shown on FC6 and it works GREAT! I made it full screen and it was 
just like the TV set 50 years ago.

    I was told to delete Totem and get vlc. I have yet to delete Totem 
but it will come soon. It is hard to delete because of the bad 
information I followed from this list. Quick to say I heard about vlc on 
this list.

    Since vlc exists according to Google I tried the simple route first. 
I typed:

    # yum install vlc

and to my pleasure yum fooled around for 15 minutes gathering lib files 
needed to get vlc working and then it installed the whole thing. I went 
to Applications->Sound and Videos and there was vlc.

    I clicked on it and a small panel showed up. No idea what to do but 
I clicked on File and then Open Disk and then clicked a little more and 
the movie started. It was exciting because I was not sure I would ever 
see this.

    This is on FC6 but I am sure you can yum it in on F7.
