    Install vlc player on CentOS 5

    Hello friends. I have a computer with CentOS 5. I want to install vlc player on CentOS 5 but i don't know how to do it. I'm new to linux and have chose to learn it and so abandon windows lately. I visited VLC Player's website and did not find vlc player download for CentOS. Also if someone can help me with the download link of VLC Player for CentOS would be helpful. Please help me guys. Thanks in advance...

    You will first need to download and install RPM Fusion in order to install and install vlc player. Also VLC player for Fedora/RedHat. CentOS is built with red hat and fedora packages so the version for fedora or redhat one should be installed for CentOS. Hope this helps.. All the best!
