Hi :) Good point about the codecs! I usually ruin through "Medibuntu" to get all the extra codecs and things from them https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu and then install mplayer and vlc player to get the last remaining ones.
Also i generally try to run through these now. I know it's command-line rather than point&click but i find it oddly easier for these. I'm sure there is some fancy linuxy way of adding all the commands together (especially those last 3!) but i keep each on a separate line in case i want to ignore 1 or 2. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jonoomph/openshot-edge sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak sudo apt-get install xbmc sudo apt-get install openshot openshot-doc but never really get the chance to do much movie editing with OpenShot. Xmbc is an excellent movie player so i get it to use. I still do get Mplayer and Vlc though because they are good for odd things, like playing stuff from phones if Xbmc refuses or makes it confusing. Mainly i get Vlc and MPlayer because it forces a lot of codecs to be pulled in as dependencies. There is a "Restricted Extras" page you can run through if you dont want so many players but it just makes things more complicated than just doing sudo apt-get install vlc mplayer Regards from Tom :) >________________________________ > From: James Knott <james.kn...@rogers.com> >To: LibreOffice <users@global.libreoffice.org> >Sent: Tuesday, 16 April 2013, 13:25 >Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] OT : good cd import software on linux > > >Dries Feys wrote: >> This is waaaaay of topic, but as there are many linux adepts over >> here, I wonder what software you use to rip cd's to mp3.
