rpmfusion is comatose, that VLC rpm hasn't been updated in a couple years.
Does that imply that I should abandon VLC or just rpmfusion? This site: http://www.tecmint.com/install-vlc-media-player-in-rhel-centos-fedora/ suggests I use epel and nux. I already have epel enabled. Should I use its suggestion to install the nux repo?
The other video player I have is mplayer, but I haven't gotten it to play anything lately. I think the issue is that decoders are "sold separately" and I do not even know what to call the decoders much less how to install them.
I have some multi-media RPMs including VLC at https://media.librelamp.com/
I started building them when rpmforge went stale, needing the GStreamer and FFmpeg - and only somewhat recently added VLC (as I have started to become really disappointed with each totem update)
Anyway I can't say they are better than nux because I never used nux but nux seems to be popular so probably has better peer support.
