[K12OSN] installing mplayer to play mp4 files

[Will Hatch]

I downloaded a youtube video that is in mp4 format and wanted to play it k12ltsp, but Totem can't play it.  I read that mplayer will, but am having all kinds of trouble getting it installed.  When I follow directions that I've found on the internet, I keep getting yum errors.  

[root at server ~]# yum install mplayer

How do I get this thing installed? Is there another rpm out there that will play mp4?
