This was many years ago but as I recall there were various issues with getting all the needed codecs working along with versions which were compatible with other software needed such as ffmpeg-php (I think it was that then?). It was a huge mess and after a few days of searching I said fuck it and compiled the relevant programs such as ffmpeg from scratch. It worked but it made updates risky.
I'm not good with .rpm based distros though. I have far more experience with Gentoo, slackware, Arch, Debian, Linux Mint and Ubuntu.
