What is unlikely? totem both plays the video and and audio from my .MPG files. It works! On my fc6 laptop, it has no problems with my files. Why is that unlikely? It works for me. The version of mplayer installed on my laptop does not. Its a fact. Clear and simple. >> On my desktop/server machine, it plays the audio and the video just >> fine.

Following Gene's advice did not help me, as dvdauthor did *not* like my mpeg files as they are. So I understand that some re-encoding will be necessary. I can see that mythtv does re-encode the mpegs that my capture cards produce, so I am not surprised. -- Kevin J.
