PS READ CAREFULLY:
I already have the the latest version of RealPlayer but it cannot play .mpeg or .avi(I haven't tried other formats). I have the setup for VLC in tar.gz format. Is it a correct software? If it is, how to install it on Linux(please give me precise step-by-step answer as I have already tried the Readme file. I hardly understood). If you have any other player in .rpm or something, suggest me and provide me with the link to download. I am really obsessed with Linux. Guys PS HELP!!

Look for a program named Totem, it is a general purpose audio/video player, and may be able to play .mpeg files. If that doesn't work by itself, make sure you have g-streamer installed, if it is available.
If that doesn't work, try a different distro, like Ubuntu.

mplayer will play both mpeg and avi. They have rpm packages.
rpm -ivh packagename.rpm
