    I believe it is a matter of taste, but personally I find that MPlayer fulfill all my video needs (with the proper codecs installed, it can play any video format).

    Some might prefer Xine or VLC.

    I'm installing Mplayer now.

    I'm just looking for audio.

    any idea why amarok-helix isn't in any of my installation sources. i guess that is vague, but i got my copy of suse through the school i work at and i'm really new at this but I don't have cds or anything like that i just have the web address of the place i'm installing from.

    everything i search for on the internet says it should be in the distribution, but i guess i could be reading it wrong.

    new problem:

    now when i try to play a real media file with mplayer i get an error

    New_Face failed. Maybe the font path is wrong. Please supply the text font file (~.mplayer/subfont.ttf)
