.mp3 playback is easy: you just need to install the necessary file
called xmms-mp3. The details (in case you aren't familiar with the joys
of using yum for software installation) are at this url:

Once you have yum configured, you can easily install the software with
this command at a root prompt:
yum install xmms-mp3
For the video playback in a browser, hit this section:
http://www.fedorafaq.org/#browsermovies
where you can read that this command will do the trick (most of the
time) for you:
yum install mplayerplug-in
Now about those .rm files -- someone else is going to have to help with
that one! I've not had much success with either the Real Player for
Linux or the Helix Player, but it's been a long time since I've tried
either.
Hope this helps,
Clint
