  • Its Possible, I did it on my machine

    You need to enable the nux-desktop repo,

    Then install yum install gstreamer gstreamer-plugins-base gstreamer-plugins-good gstreamer-plugins-bad-free

    you might also be asked to download another codec depending with the Player you are using, if you install VLC via yum as well it comes with its own codecs. Hope that helps

  • Hello Ambrus,

    You will need to install nux repo[0] and epel repo[1], when both of these repos are installed you can install the following packages:

    $ sudo yum -y install gstreamer1-libav gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-extras gstreamer1-plugins-bad-freeworld gstreamer1-plugins-base-tools updates gstreamer1-plugins-good-extras gstreamer1-plugins-ugly gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free gstreamer1-plugins-good gstreamer1-plugins-base gstreamer1

    OR you can install vlc
    $ sudo yum install vlc

    [0] http://li.nux.ro/repos.html
    [1]

    Hope this helps

    Isn’t mplayer available yet for CentOS 7? That plays pretty much anything (and I can do it from a command line, rather than yet another annoying GUI window that wants valuable screen real estate….)

  • Yes, from ATrpms or the Nux Desktop repo. (I’m going by pkgs.org)
    (Both also have the libdvdcss as well if one wants to play movie DVDs)
