How to install VLC Media Player on Fedora
Fedora doesn’t distribute VLC media player as part its core and updates. So you need download rpms from rpmfusion.org as shown below.
[root@techpulp ~]# rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm [root@techpulp ~]# yum install -y vlc [root@techpulp ~]# yum install -y mozilla-vlc
Off the above, installing mozilla-vlc is optional as it installs a browser plug-in for Mozilla/Firefox Browser.

Typically “yum” takes care of main rpm and its dependent rpms. So yum automatically downloads all requires rpms and installs them.
One crude way is to first download the main rpm and try to install it using “rpm -i vlc-xxx.rpm”. Then rpm command throws some info related to dependent files. Based on that information you can google and find the dependent rpms to download and install.
(In your case, You may have to switch between Windows and Linux multiple times.)
