xine. But the version included in 7.3 is both old (for practical reasons) and incomplete (for legal reasons). download the latest version from http://skyblade.homeip.net regards Anders
I like mtv (mpegtv.com) it plays mpegs, vcds, etc. its not free though, costs $10 but is a good product. Suse used to ship with it (30 day trial or something) but doenst anymore. Xine also works, but getting it to compile and getting all the modules and everything can be a pain in the but. i use mtv for anything not avi or dvd, xmms for avi's and xine for dvd playback.

How do you use xmms for avi's? When I try to add an avi to my xmms playlist, nothing happens. *************************************************** Powered by SuSE Linux 7.2 Professional KDE 2.1.2 KMail 1.2 Bryan S. Tyson bryantyson@earthlink.net ***************************************************

By compiling and installing the avi-xmms plugin from 4Front: ftp://ftp.xmms.org/xmms/plugins/avi-xmms Requires avifile and binary Win32 codecs to operate. It's vastly superior to xmms-avi, which is now orphaned. smpeg-xmms, also from 4Front, is an excellent MPEG player input plugin, too. I don't use either plugin anymore, though. I never could get the queuing process figured out. I just use Mplayer, these days. :) Any good browser + Plugger-4.0 + Mplayer = great multimedia web experience! -- -=|JP|=- Need a good geek?

there is an avi plugin for xmms, and an mpeg plugin. go to xmms.org and look for the plugins. On Thu, 27 Dec 2001, Bryan Tyson wrote:

Keep it simple... use Mplayer for Linux. One player for all formats/types. http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/ You can play pretty much any video format (VCD, SVCD, DVD, MPEG, VOB, AVI, VIVO, ASF/WMV, QT/MOV-except Sorenson codec, 3ivx, FLI, DivX etc.) including subtitle support. It supports the codecs for MPEG1 (VCD) and MPEG2 (DVD), DivX4, Windows Media7 and 8, Intel Indeo, MJPEG, VIVO, AC3, OGG, Voxware alaw, etc., etc., etc. I have been using this program for a while now, and it rarely ever gives me problems. Compiles nicely on a vanilla SuSE install. The latest version of MPlayer has a video encoding tool too... Clayton -- This is Linux country. If you listen carefully, you can hear Windows reboot...
