Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Fedora Project Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by RahulSundaram: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Multimedia ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The default installation of Fedora includes '''Rhythmbox''' and '''Totem''' for media playback. The Fedora repositories include many other popular programs such as the '''XMMS''' player and KDE's '''amaroK'''. Both GNOME and KDE have a selection of players that can be used with a variety of formats. Third parties may offer additional programs to handle other formats. Fedora also takes full advantage of the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) sound system. Many programs can play sound simultaneously, which was once difficult on Linux systems. When all multimedia software is configured to use ALSA for sound support, this limitation disappears. For more information about ALSA, visit the project website at http://www.alsa-project.org/. Users may still experience issues when multiple users log into the system. Depending upon hardware and software configurations, multiple users may not be able to use the sound hardware simultaneously. - - '''Helix Player''' has been removed from this release since it duplicates the functionality of '''Totem'''. '''Totem''' also uses the '''GStreamer''' media framework, which is used by other multimedia applications in Fedora. With '''GStreamer''', users can easily add support for additional codecs to all included applications. = Ogg and Xiph.Org Foundation Formats = -- Fedora-relnotes-content mailing list Fedora-relnotes-content@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-relnotes-content
