- Real player to playback real media files
- VLC player as MPEG, DVD, and DivX player
- Xine Player which we can install the Binary Codecs to support the formats that Xine does not directly support
First, go to https://player.helixcommunity.org/2004/downloads/ and download the rpm package from the Linux/x86 section.
Then go to terminal windows and enter the following commands:install compat-libstdc++-33 compatibility libraries:
$ sudo yum install compat-libstdc++-33
then, cd to the directory where you save the real-player RPM and enter the command
$ sudo rpm -ivh [filename]
in my case, i entered
$ sudo rpm -ivh RealPlayer-10.0.4.750-20050401.i586.rpm
After the rpm is succesfully installed, the installation progress completed and your real player is ready to be used.
Installing vlc Player:

Note: the all-20071007.tar.bz2 in tar -jxvf all-20071007.tar.bz2 --strip-components 1 -C /usr/lib/codecs/ is the filename of the binary codec you downloaded. Sometimes, the filename will be saved a little differently with the filename stated. Please use ls command to check whether the filename is matched.
