Hi everyone,

I posted this on the rpmfusion-users list, but there hasn't been a 
single reply in over 4 days. Thought someone here might be able to help...

TIA

Hi all,

I am not sure its an mplayer or Fedora problem, but I'm inclined
towards mplayer as everything else works perfectly on my system.

When I go to http://www.wrc.com/jsp/index.jsp?lnk=300 and look at any
of the videos, gecko-mediaplayer plays them but without any sound. (I
have not encountered any other website with this problem) Is this a
limitation of the codecs or something missing on my part? btw this
works just fine on XP with the K-Lite media codec pack installed.

$ yum list installed \*player\*
