Try installing these. You may have to install repository files for
rpmfusion which you can easily get from the net from their site.

Some of the packs  mentioned may already be installed. Yum will simply skip
them. Some I may have posted more than once, so excuse that.

These are meta packs which pull in lots of decoders, plugins etc.

DVDAuthorWizard DVDRipOMatic

You can also install these packs for multimedia.

mozilla-vlc  vlc-plugin-jack vlc-extras vlc ffmpeg2dirac ffmpeg2theora
dirac mp3gain
libtunepimp-extras-freeworld

Install flash-plugin from adobe.

Some packs may be redundant but they are small & also don't hurt anyone.
