I have installed the media package in total. Afterwards i downloaded the codecs from mplayer.hq (the all codecs package) and copied it into usr/lib/win32. Still neither Kaffeine, nor Xine nor Juk will play any MP3 file.
What am i doing wrong? Is this a well known bug?
The easiest is to add Packman to your install source and install the codecs with Yast. http://www.opensuse.org/Additional_YaST_Package_Repositories
houghi Installed the wincodecs from the extra repository directories, but no result at all. Juk for instance seems to run thru the medialist as soon as i start an MP3 file to play.
Was it something else that went wrong?
You need kdemultimedia3-mad to be able to play mp3s in juk. There are other -mad packages for other players. The windows codecs from mplayerhq are for playing wma and fellows. To use them you also need support for them in xine which is set at compile time. The packages from Packman have them enabled. Add the packman repository in Yast as Houghi suggested and go to software management. There use the package group filter and select the group zzz All. Go to package -> all in this list -> update if newer version available. That should update xine, kaffeine and all other media packages. Verify that it is by selecting the filter installation summary. If it is not updated, the name is libxine1 for the xine from packman. -- Guðlaugur Jóhannesson http://www.hi.is/~gudlaugu Phone: +354 849 8405
