That baseurl doesn't seem completely correct. Change 'fc$releasever 
$basesearch' to 'fc$releasever-$basesearch'.

These last two packages do not exist. The are just called divx4linux  
and w32codec. They can be installed all at once with one command like  
this:

	# yum --enablerepo=at-stable -y install mplayer mplayer-skins  
mplayer-fonts divx4linux w32codec

You also might want to add mplayer-plugin to the mix, so you can  
watch videos in your browser.
