P.S. Back to the OP's topic... Dave, if you're still listening and having problems:
Still listening and still having problems. If I do the same command that you did, you can see perl-Video-DVDRip is not installed: [root@localhost ~]# rpm -q perl-Video-DVDRip transcode xine mplayer tvtime vcdimager videolan-client subtitleripper ogle libdvdread lame libcddb libcdio package perl-Video-DVDRip is not installed transcode-1.0.0-1.2.el4.rf xine-0.99.4-1.2.el4.rf mplayer-1.0-0.17.pre7.2.el4.rf tvtime-0.99-1.2.el4.rf vcdimager-0.7.14-4.2.el4.rf videolan-client-0.8.1-3.2.el4.rf subtitleripper-0.3.4-1.2.el4.rf ogle-0.9.2-4.2.el4.rf libdvdread-0.9.4-6.2.el4.rf lame-3.96.1-2.2.el4.rf libcddb-1.2.0-3.1.el4.kb libcdio-0.75-3.1.el4.kb
And when I do try to install it with YUM: --> Running transaction check --> Processing Conflict: transcode conflicts perl-Video-DVDRip < 0.51.2 --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: transcode conflicts with perl-Video-DVDRip < 0.51.2
