Hi, I'm trying to play some audio files encoded in dts format (.dts), tried Amarok which prompts for the installation of an extra plugin "DTS Decoder" to decode files, but which unfortunately does not find anything useful in the available repos (standard ones). Now according to http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/plugins.html gstreamer comes with a suitable decoder which seems to be included in the gst-plugins-bad (http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/modules/gst-plugins-bad.html) package. Now I should be already covered accordingly:

But still Amarok does not know how to decode the files. I know the format is somewhat odd for an audio file, but before trying to convert with mplayer, I thought I could have missing something: any hints?
Thank you.
In YaST do a Search in the Install Software section and include in the Search parameters Description and Provides for the term 'dts'. See what comes up, OK?
