In this article I used Centos 4.0 and I believe if you have Redhat or Fedora distro you can use this tutorials also. we know mplayer is powerfull Player for play our multimedia files in linux. sometime I look so lazy with fully textbase in linux this time I use centos on my laptop that I used for my daily job.
first we must download MPlayer and mplayer skin from http://mplayerhq.hu.
before we install the Mplayer please make sure that we have the following devel are install (dont forget you must go to your root) :
gnome2.8xx
gcc-3.4.X
gtk+-12.10-33.src.rpm
glib-devel-1.2.10-15.i386.rpm
gtk+-devel-1.2.10-33.i386.rpm
By using command rpm -qa | grep <input our application/devel>, after we sure that everything thing is done . we starting install mplayer.
./configure –enable-gui
make
make install
make clean (this is use for clean the binary install>
if the installing process was done.
extract mplayer skin that we dowanload from website.
tar -xzvf <file.tar.gz>
or
tar -xjvf <file.tar.bz>
and copy into /usr/local/share/mplayer/Skin/
cp -a <foldername> /usr/local/share/mplayer/Skin/
Finish if theris no problem you can tipe these command from your virtual gnome terminal.
