I had similar problems, using Gutsy Tribe 4. Amarok freezes up when complaining of lack of mp3 support.
(But now, looking at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats again, I see that I probably didn't follow the instructions completely. I only installed the "Ubuntu restricted extras" package as suggested in the main part in the beginning of the document: "Follow these steps to play most common multimedia formats, including MP3 ..."; install" Ubuntu restricted extras". I didn't notice that there were additional instructions several sections and mouseclicks away on other pages - "install the package libxine1-ffmpeg (which will install libmad0 as well)".) However, after deleting the xine catalog.cache file and installing the "Xine extra plugins" as the description in the Adept Manager said "Codecs to play mp3 ... in Amarok ..." Amarok didn't complain anymore and happily played my mp3 tracks. -- MP3 Support is Broken In Feisty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/77059 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for kaffeine in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
