Hello, I'm not a multimedia person myself, but I was given a floppy disk with an MPEG file and a .wav file on it. (Nothing 'dodgy', just some fun stuff!) Having installed RH8.0, I thought no problems there must be an mpeg viewer and a .wav player somewhere in there. I use KDE as my desktop. Well I tried 'kaboodle' and 'noatun' and got completely lost with 'aRts' (?). None of them could play/show either file. Running 'file' against them shows the mpeg to actually be a quicktime file, but the wav file starts by saying it is a RIFF file (I think - apologies, but the files are on my home PC, and this is from work). The simple question is what do people use to view MPEG/Quicktime files, and what do people use to play wav files? As far as I remember kaboodle did nothing, and noatun simply said it wasn't a wav file (or was of an unrecognised format). Any suggestions? I could find nothing which appeared to help on the RH CD's, but then with names like 'kaboodle' it's not exactly obvious what it does! Thanks, John. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John Horne, University of Plymouth, UK Tel: +44 (0)1752 233914 E-mail: jhorne@plymouth.ac.uk PGP key available from public key servers -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
