Hi, thank you for the very helpful steps for F.C. 9. there is a typo in step 3 above. the /rpm is missing. So it should be:

Thanks,

Tanuj,

You need to install mp3 plugins, just type the following commands:
ADD FILES aka repo:
rpm -ihv http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/6/i386/livna-release-6-1.noarch.rpm rpm --import http://rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY
ADD MP3 support:
yum install xmms xmms-mp3 xmms-faad2 gstreamer-plugins-ugly libmad libid3tag
ADD DVD Support:
yum install xine xine-lib xine-skins xine-lib-extras-nonfree libdvdcs yum install videolan-client
