Hi,

What url to add to my etc/apt/sources.list to allow me to 'apt-get install
mplayer'?

Multimedia packages such as mplayer or video-dvdrip are unofficial, so if
you do 'apt-get install mplayer', you will get:

Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package mplayer

The solution is to add the unofficial url to etc/apt/sources.list. My
question is, what to add?

Thanks
