Totem decoder with Redhat

[tommyboystair]

I'm trying to view .mov files using Totem 2.16.7 with GStreamer 0.10.20 and GNOME but am getting an error that I don't have a decoder installed.

What exactly do I need to get to fix this error?

Thanks,
T.J.

Hi and Welcome !

Which version of RHEL are you using?

[reed9]

Add the rpmforge repository.

Install the following packages:
gstreamer-plugins-good
gstreamer-plugins-bad
gstreamer-plugins-ugly
gstreamer-ffmpeg

[tommyboystair]

Using RHEL 5.
In which directory must the plugins be installed.

[reed9]

With RHEL5, use your package manager yum. After enabling the rpmforge repo do

su -
yum install gstreamer-plugins-good gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-ugly gstreamer-ffmpeg

Chapter*1.*Yum

Package Management with RPM

[tommyboystair]

I ran the yum install command as follows:

yum install gstreamer-plugins-good gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-ugly gstreamer-ffmpeg

...with the following results:

Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security
Setting up Install Process
Package gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.9-1.el5_3.2.x86_64 already installed and latest version
No package gstreamer-plugins-bad available.
No package gstreamer-plugins-ugly available.
No package gstreamer-ffmpeg available.
Nothing to do

I downloaded and extracted .tar.gz's for the plugins online prior to trying to install them...

Sorry, a little ugly.

You haven't installed RPMforge repository as suggested by reed9 in post #3.

Click on this link. Execute command under title "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 / x86_64: " to install RPMforge repository.
After installing RPMforge repository, execute command suggested by reed9 in post #5.
