    You probably need to install win32 codecs. Setup the various main, contrib, plf and updates software repositorie for your version of Mandriva using the instructions at easyurpmi and then run the package manager, search for win32 and install the package when found.

    get VLC or MPLAYER

    as root do these

    Code:
    urpmi mplayer-gui
urpmi mplayer-skins
urpmi mplayer-fonts
urpmi mplayerplugin

    Code:
    urpmi vlc

    Code:

    get's DVD playing support on Mandriva

    NOTE

    To install many codecs , application you have to enable various extra repositories , these repositories are not activated by default in Mandriva linux. Get repositories list by visiting Easyurpmi
