No sounds

Pytron
Hi there, i have installed RedHat linux 9 and internet works fine and the sound etc too, but if i put a music disc (audio cd) there come's no sound, i think its something to do with the codec. Does anyone know what the problem is? And i dont know how i must let the java applets work.

Mplayer error

TNS
Hello. I have been trying to play a movie, and after a few minutes I get the message Your system is too slow to play this. This would be fine, if I didn't have a 1 ghz! But if I use the -nosound it works fine.

CD burning software

bopadu
I am a frustrated XP user (now that's a redundancy) looking into switching to Linux. I do a lot of CD and VCD burning, and currently use Feurio and Nero. Can I continue to use my current versions under Linux, and if not, do these or other similar programs have versions specifically for Linux? Thanks.

mplayer

rdsii640
I recently found out that the mplayer that comes with large distos like SuSE or Mandrake or what ever don't come with any codec like xvid or divx and so on. my question is this is it best to simply install the codecs myself or to uninstall the player and then reinstall it with the needed codecs.
