permissions problem of some sort. The packages are there, they just
can't be accessed because something has changed the access rights.
I had not considered permissions but I will have to look into it. It seems the only other possibility at this time.
Does sox or audacity work for converting to mp3?
I have not tried them but I had tried amarok and another music player to see if it was app specific. It's not.
Do you have lame and libmad installed? These are other libraries
that allow encoding and playing mp3s. I can't think about how they
could be the cause of your problem, just suggest them as a wild
possibility.
I do have them. The option to save as mp3 just does not appear in any of the sound apps I have. I have tried all the suggestions so far to no avail.
thanks .
