Problem installing VLC on Centos 7

Postby DaveAh » 16 Mar 2020 12:15

Hi

I am trying to install VLC on Centos 7, using the instructions here: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-redhat.html

I ran:

Code: Select all

sudo yum -y install epel-release sudo -E rpm -Uvh http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/dextop/el7/x86_64/nux-dextop-release-0-5.el7.nux.noarch.rpm sudo -E yum install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm sudo -E yum install https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/rpmfusion-free-release-7.noarch.rpm sudo -E yum install vlc
The last of those commands gives:

Code: Select all

Transaction check error: file /usr/lib64/libavcodec.so.57 conflicts between attempted installs of ffmpeg-libs-3.4.7-1.el7.x86_64 and libav-12-2.el7.x86_64 file /usr/lib64/libavfilter.so.6 conflicts between attempted installs of ffmpeg-libs-3.4.7-1.el7.x86_64 and libav-12-2.el7.x86_64 file /usr/lib64/libavformat.so.57 conflicts between attempted installs of ffmpeg-libs-3.4.7-1.el7.x86_64 and libav-12-2.el7.x86_64 file /usr/lib64/libavresample.so.3 conflicts between attempted installs of ffmpeg-libs-3.4.7-1.el7.x86_64 and libav-12-2.el7.x86_64 file /usr/lib64/libavutil.so.55 conflicts between attempted installs of ffmpeg-libs-3.4.7-1.el7.x86_64 and libav-12-2.el7.x86_64 file /usr/lib64/libswscale.so.4 conflicts between attempted installs of ffmpeg-libs-3.4.7-1.el7.x86_64 and libav-12-2.el7.x86_64
How can I fix this please?

I fixed the ffmpeg-libs problem by:

$ yum install ffmpeg ffmpeg-devel
$ yum install vlc
