    I have downloaded the mplayer codecs from:
    http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/dload.html
    (the essential codec pack)
    for linux and want to install it but all I have is a folder with all the codecs. Is there a way to install these? Should I just copy all of them to a folder (which one)?
    Thanks.

    Just found this quick little blurb.

    You have to uncompress the contents of the codec pack archive into the directory
    <installed path>/mplayer/codecs, mplayer will use it automatically
    I'm booted into XP right now, but the next time I boot into Fedora, I'll check those dirs to be sure.

    Let me check that out and see if I can do it. I'm guessing its something like /home/[yourusername]/mplayer/codecs/ like you said.
