What are the chances that a package such as vlc from http://videolan.org/vlc would become included in extras? so a yum install vlc would work.
Thanks,

I got vlc by doing "yum install vlc". I think it came from freshrpms. The Centos web site has instructions on how to set up freshrpms on your system.

I don't think so, as freshrpms doesn't do packages for Enterprise Linux.
ITYM rpmforge. See http://wiki.centos.org/Repositories.

Salam,
Most likely, for such type of things, i have come accross in google that u have to include the repository path in yum.conf..... It is possible that for VLC there is some thing like that...

rpmforge has it, so you can install it via yum from there. I see no need in doubling efforts, as rpmforge is a trusted third party repository.
See http://wiki.centos.org/Repositories on how to set up rpmforge for your computer.
