Install VLC on CentOS

Before executing the following commands, you can first go to the/etc/yum. repos. d/directory to ls to see what they look like. 1. install the repository of epel and remi: [root @ localhost ~] # Yumlocalinstall -- nogpgcheckhttp: // dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.

Before executing the following commands, you can first go to the/etc/yum. repos. d/directory to ls to see what they look like.

1. install the repository of epel and remi:
[Root @ localhost ~] # Yum localinstall -- nogpgcheck http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
When a foreigner wrote the article, the epel-release version was 6.7, and the download link he gave was.
[Root @ localhost ~] # Yum localinstall -- nogpgcheck http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm

2. install rpmfusion's repository:
The following two rpm packages must be installed:
[Root @ localhost ~] # Yum localinstall -- nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/6/i386/rpmfusion-free-release-6-1.noarch.rpm
[Root @ localhost ~] # Yum localinstall -- nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/6/i386/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-6-1.noarch.rpm

After completing the preceding two steps, go to the/etc/yum. repo. d/directory and execute ls to check the changes. I want to know everything clearly. if you don't know anything about it, let's get it done ..

3. view the vlc version information:
[Root @ localhost ~] # Yum -- enablerepo = remi-test info vlc
The result of this command is as follows:

Available Packages Name: vlc Arch: i686 Version: 2.0.6 Release: 1. el6 Size: 1.4 M Repo: rpmfusion-free-updates Summary: The cross-platform open-source multimedia framework, player and : Server URL: http://www.videolan.org License: GPLv2 + Description: VLC media player is a highly portable multimedia player and : Multimedia framework capable of reading most audio and video : Formats as well as DVDs, Audio CDs VCDs, and various streaming : Protocols. It can also be used as a media converter or a server : Stream in uni-cast or multi-cast in IPv4 or IPv6 on networks.

4. installation:
[Root @ localhost ~] # Yum -- enablerepo = remi-test install vlc

Run the input vlc directly after completion.
[Root @ localhost ~] # Vlc
Unfortunately, it tells you that vlc does not support root. It is reasonable to think about how vlc has such a design. We can only blame you for not doing enough. continue to solve the problem.
Two methods:
Method 1: Download the vlc source code and re-compile it. in configure, add a configuration item -- enable-run-as-root, and then everything is fine. At present, it is unrealistic for me. I am also going to bed, unless I want to experience the fun of compiling from the source code someday. [Reject]
Method 2: easy and pleasant. I like it. In this case, the vlc executable file should be installed in the/usr/bin/directory and backed up to another path for future use. Then open/usr/bin/vlc in the vi editor and change the unique geteuid to getppid to save and exit.

Since my CentOS does not have a graphical interface installed, to verify the correctness of the VLC, execute the following command in the VM:
Its function is to use vlc to publish a video file named space_camera.flv in the current directory in a "streaming" manner, similar to vod of Youku and Tudou, enable vlc for playback in windows, and fill in "mmsh: // 192.168.40.132: 11111" in "enable network streaming ".
