[opensuse] Amarok with MP3 on OpenSuse 10.3
On my system, connected to the net with ADSL I am able to play MP3 files without problems. At the first try Amarok told me I should get the packman Amarok (I think it was) and everything else was painless. I just got a Windows feller so far that he installed 10.3 on one of his computers. The only problem befallen him is that MP3 files can not be played. The program request to be connected with the net in order to download the missing rpm's. As this person has no possibility to connect to the web he cannot solve this problem. I have downloaded the newest Amarok rpm for him but at install Yast is complaining about missing dependencies with regard to Amarok. Could somebody give me the names of the missing rpm in order to give this newby a working Amarok? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Is there any way you could at least connect one machien to that guy's
machine (I am not sure how he intends to use it period unless it is
web-enabled; where is he going to get his music?). At any rate, what
you need is various gstreamer packages; the easiest way to deliver
them would be in a whole repository which you can mirror onto your
machine. So the easiest way to go about this would be to put the right
repositories onto a machine, connect that machine to the one in
question and install from there. That's what I would recommend.

You could also head to fluendo.com, "purchase" the mp3 plugin at their e-shop (it`s free of charge), and then consult the INSTALL.mp3.txt file for installation instructions. (It`s only a matter of putting the *.so file into /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10 ) -- Regards, Ewald Danel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

.. forgot to mention you also need to configure Amarok to use the GStreamer/yauap engine. -- Regards, Ewald Danel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
since I had similar problem, I did "purchased" and installed (copied) the .so file. but nothing happened. I still can see amarok "plays" the mp3 file, "the clock" is ticking... I can see it plays but can't hear it? yes, the speakers are not mute and volume is "loud" enough to hear something. :D thanks. -afan On Wed, 2008-04-09 at 15:00 +0200, Ewald Danel wrote:

Are you sure your soundcard works? Or that the soundcard on Kmix, is the card you use? -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
the laptop is really new (T61p). it came with WinXP pre-installed and it worked fine then. about a week ago I installed opensuse 10.3. since I had problem (still have :() with WiFi I didn't spent any time configuring mp3 players. tried yesterday and - failed :) is there any particular way to "test" the sound card? thanks, -afan On Wed, 2008-04-09 at 22:11 +0200, Oddball wrote:

Why don't you look in software in Yast2 for updates for amarok and install the gstreamer and fluendo plugins from there? Do you have online repos installed? -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (Now or never...)

Select one of them, right-click and select: update all in list, if update available. That way you are sure you have the latest version installed. Do not forget to look inside Amarok: >engine, to set to Gstreamer, but you did that i guess ;) -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

he already mentioned that the mp3 is playing, he just can't hear something. As he also statet that he can't hear the test sound, I doubt the soundcard is configured properly.. just a check: Have you heard any sound on this openSUSE installation ever yet? Regards Michael

sorry guys... while playing with sound card in yast and software update, the system crashed and I can't start KDE anymore ?!?!?
