The Linpus linux is based to Fedora projetcs . installing  direct from the os with yum install vlc or yum install mplayer should not be completed because there is  some missing dependencies .
please follow this way to update and install new media player and other packages :
go to http://rpmfusion.org/RPM%20Fusion
download rpmfusion of fedora 8 or 9   for  your processor i386 or amd X86_64
  $su -
# rpm -ivh   http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/updates/9/i386/rpmfusion-free-release-9-12.noarch.rpm  Â
then
#yum update
#yum install vlc  mplayer  Â
Another methode to install vlc in linpus :We have just to add the repositories and install it via yum.
First you have to add some repositories to your installartion copy the 2 lines below to your terminal and click enter :
sudo rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm
http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm
and then :
sudo rpm -Uvh http://rpms.kwizart.net/kwizart-release-8.rpm
sudo yum install --enablerepo=kwizart-testing vlc vlc-core mozilla-vlc
If you want to make a shotcut on the desktop of your computer :
sudo sed s/%U// -i /usr/share/applications/livna-vlc.desktop
dca add 12 "file='/usr/share/applications/livna-vlc.desktop'"
If you want to add themes for your VLC player you can download alll thems here
