the last time i used linux i could have sworn i got an mplayer gui just from the rpm's?

oh and McoreD you'll need make and GCC for a lot of stuff lol

Sephiroth :o
Oh! Have I done something wrong them :unsure: :( Prolly you used a different version of Linux...:unsure:
When I type mplayer in the terminal, I get a list of commands on how to use the mplayer by command controls. Following that I managed to play a WMA file mplayer /root/mp3/without_me.wma like that. That's all I could do upto now....wanna check what buildid said in the next reboot to Linux.

@buildid:
Unfortunately mp-arial-iso-8859-1.zip doesn't exist :( Can I use a different Skin instead please? :)
Thanks guys for all the help...I am very grateful...I thank you and thank you...what else I could do :(

you could download any skin , type gmplayer for starting mplayer with gui

To uninstall you should actually do:
(Assuming you are in /root/mplayer)

[root@localhost mplayer]# rpm -e mplayer-gui-0.90pre10-1
[root@localhost mplayer]# rpm -e mplayer-skin-default-1.5-1
[root@localhost mplayer]# rpm -e mplayer-font-iso1-1.0-1
[root@localhost mplayer]# rpm -e mencoder-0.90pre10-1
[root@localhost mplayer]# rpm -e mplayer-0.90pre10-1
[root@localhost mplayer]# rpm -e mencoder-0.90pre10-1

Just a correction :)
We have to get rid of the whole .i386.rpm :)
