As I recently discovered it is not very easy to enable mp3 on most media players of OpenSuSE (except RealPlayer). I am getting upset for this

But my friend, it isn't going to change any time soon.
I believe you already know how important this issue is, this issue itself can lead a lot of user goes to Ubuntu and a lot other distributions,
If people are willing to break the law with Ubuntu, they can do so in SUSE as well. All the packages you need are available at packman.links2linux.org. But the law being what it is, it's just not legal to distribute, not for SUSE, not for Ubuntu, not for anyone.
* Rhymbox is not able to play mp3, as far as I know no package in packman can help that * BMP which rely on gstreamer cannot play mp3. I still don't know any package on packman can help (please correct me, help greatly appreiated because I started searching several days agao) * Totem cannot play mp3 which also rely on gstreamer, non of packman's package can help * XMMS cannot play mp3 and non of packman's package can help. * Banshee is not able to play mp3 and the only package can help is helix, which is not found on packman, nor on official repository. There are all solutions to the problems listed above, all of them require commandline skill (several solutions that do not require commandline skill, like installing gstream-mad and gstream-ugly, tested not working for me). The only package I know that plays mp3 thanks to packman is MPlayer.
The only thing legal to distribute are licensed players, and for that, there is RealPlayer/Helix
how do we interprate the fact Helix is removed from non-oss section? (it was there.) As far as I know it's perfectly legal to distribute this package. Current situation: Helix is not existing in official repository, not in SuSE Guru, not in Packman. (This page shows I am not the only person confused on why Helix is removed. http://www.suseforums.net/index.php?showtopic=28227 But glad to know at least it's not removed from SuSE Enterprise Linux Desktop, in which Helix-banshee is installed by default) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
