Web Multimedia and Linux Desktops
November 28, 2004 Posted by mitch | internet, linux, microsoft | 0 Comments
Ok, I've been living with Fedora Core 3 for a couple weeks now... I also use Core 3 as a Desktop at work and I must say, for a Linux Desktop, Core 3 is great. However, my complaints are simply about multimedia on the web. All to often things are just written for Windows, and all the formats windows programs can typically read. My multimedia needs are simple... I want to be able to watch movie trailers off of apples web site! I've download all of the latest codecs from Mplayers website, and installed them in /usr/lib/win32 however playing off the web is still a pain... I really hope this will be fixed soon.
