    You should install the windows codecs (aka: w32codecs), and see if that solves the problem.

    There is no rpm package available to install these codecs, but you can manually install them following the instructions found here:

    Personal Fedora 11 Installation Guide

    You may also want to install support for playing DVDs. You will need to enable the Livna repository for that:

    rpm.livna.org

    Then install this package:
    Code:
    yum install dvdcss
