Use a proper KDE player. I recommend KPlayer. http://kplayer.sf.net/
Another option is to go with KPlayer + MPlayer + libdvdcss. This works quite well, and you will very rarely if ever need the w32codecs stuff. MPlayer supports most codecs natively or through ffmpeg.
In Konqueror there is an option to enable Java. Look for it in Settings - Configure Konqueror.
Here's one page that explains how to add the livna repositories on Fedora Core: http://rpm.livna.org/rlowiki/UsingLivna The KPlayer home page has instructions about installing KPlayer on Fedora: http://kplayer.sourceforge.net/#downloads
For Fedora there is the linva repository that has KPlayer, MPlayer, and libdvdcss, that should be enough to play DVDs. You should also have libavcodec and libavformat for various other file types, but that I think is in the main Fedora pool.
KDE does not have enough man power to fix all the Konqueror bugs, so starting a whole new project that does nothing but duplicate a little bit of existing functionality is a total waste. Fix Konqueror bugs, make it more flexible, take care of all the profile management mess once and for all by separating web browsing from file management, change all the eye candy you want, let the user choose whether to have the Up button, etc. etc. There is plenty of work to do. How about fixing file selection ...
Something like mplayer -vo xv myvideo.avi in Konsole...
For cases like this KPlayer has a right click option called Start KPlayer, that will play the video in the standalone program, in fact that is what I use most of the time since I don't like to watch videos embedded in web pages. Not sure if KMPlayer has a similar option though, but you can always switch to KPlayer easily.
KPlayer turns the screen saver off and then back on, at least that is what the manual says: http://kplayer.sourceforge.net/manual/settings-general.html I think it never touches whatever you call "power saver", but I could be wrong. Could it be that MPlayer itself messes with that? What happens when you play a video with MPlayer from the command line?
Just set your RSS viewer to start KPlayer and play the streams. KPlayer is the best for streaming media.
After your video stops playing, the screen saver will go off in five minutes or whatever your setting is.
Look on the General page in Settings - Configure KPlayer, I think there was an option that you can turn off. Not sure if power saver is the same as screen saver though.
Yes, it should be on the Settings menu normally. What program are you trying to configure? In KPlayer it's Settings - Configure KPlayer - Audio section - Driver and Device settings.
Like I said in another thread, ALSA devices should be referenced by name rather than ID. See the routing sound to multiple soundcards thread.
An ALSA forum or mailing list or IRC channel would be the best place to ask about this.
I really don't know about other programs, since I use KPlayer for all my media playing needs. In any case each program should allow you to configure your sound output, we are talking about KDE after all...
The sound card numbers are assigned pretty much at random on init, this is unfortunately due to the way init works these days. The good news is, with ALSA you can reference sound cards by name rather than number. First, run cat /proc/asound/cards you will get something like 0 [AudioPCI ]: ENS1371 - Ensoniq AudioPCI Ensoniq AudioPCI ENS1371 at 0xd400, irq 225 1 [U0x46d0x8d9 ]: USB-Audio - USB Device 0x46d:0x8d9 USB Device 0x46d:0x8d9 at usb-0000:00:10.0-1, full speed 2 [V8237 ]: VIA8237 - VIA 823...
Did you try to dpkg -i the sarge package you found? It may just work...
Not sure since I don't have KDE in front of me atm. But if you right click the media panel in kicker, you should be able to get to that screen without the control center.
I think you select what shows up in media:/ somewhere in the Control Center. KDE doesn't mount stuff you insert right away, but only when you say Open In New Window or somesuch.
