No it doesn't, you can only play .ogg, .flac and .ogm files with it. You'll have to download and install xmms, mplayer, vlc etc to play multimedia files.
^ thanks buddy

I believe that codecs for free formats like theora and speex are also bundled.

offtopic :if fedora 7 does not contain all the codes so what makes the fedora 7 worth of 5 cds ?
there are many things more than multimedia which is used by linux users.
and fyi fedora/opensuse/debian are all mutli cd/dvd distros which carries everything from running a gui to complete clusters maybe.
and it aint that hard to get fedora to play all those deprived codecs due to patent and license restrictions in US and other.
u can read *fedorafaq.org for more details.also giyf

they might include Codec Buddy in the next release, which will make it easier to install codecs.
