MPlayer Codecs

[wrathofnero]

So, before I had mentioned having trouble playing videos through my MPlayer plugin. Well, I checked on it, and it doesn't show red, meaning that it is supported and working, and I noticed that MPlayer has a bunch of nifty plug ins. Which one would I probably want for running these kinds of videos? All windows of course, and I do have the codecs, I should say. But, in the program, you only select one of each, so I was curious which to pick.

I'm going to add to this. I tested it, and some of my plugins don't work, I can see, that it changes plugins as necessary, so that's no longer the question, but rather, where can I find a surefire version of Mplayer plugin, or is it more codecs that I need? If so, help there, too. I got my plugins from my SUSE disc, so it's probably american, should I find Chinese just to view Movies from www.videocodezone.com?

I can play videos from that site with no problem on my SuSE-10.1 pc. I have MozillaFirefox-1.5.0.8, with MPlayer-1.0rc1-1.pm.1 and mplayerplug-in-3.31-0.pm.1. My MPlayer and mplayerplug-in come from Packman's rpm site:

I recommend you replace your Novell/SuSE-GmbH packaged multimedia rpms with Packman packaged multimedia rpms, whenever there is a Packman equivalent to the Novell/SuSE packaged rpm.

Good luck.
