I don't know if this will address the specific error that you are 
getting, but double-check the libdvd* libmad* above. There are errors, 
spelling and capitalization, in what you provided that would prevent 
Totem from working properly.

Here is the correct command you'll want:

# yum install libdvd* libmad* totem*

Hope this helps,
Clint
