Need a player that will play .wma files I would prefer one that is easy to install and use

 

I'm still getting my feet wet with Linux and don't want to jump in the deep in if I don't have to.

also I thought mplayer ghad a GUI front end as I see messages about skins

 

Is it only command line

 

How did you install it?

 

all i do is setup my urpmi sources (with plf, texstar, etc)

 

then do:

su

urpmi mplayer

 

iit will ask if you want to install a list of packages so type y

might say signatures for plf rpms are bad install anyway.

 

Then to use mplayer there should be a link under "multimedia -> video -> mplayer" on your kde start application menu(if your using kde of course).

 

for most movie files right click on the file in a file manager and open with mplayer.

sometimes you have to add the file associations via "edit file type" on the rightclick menu.
