[Centos] MP3 playback

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Look at the DAG repository or http://rpm.livna.org/

I normally grab the SRPMs and recompile.
I find it quite frustrating... particularly when I can get a
commercial OS that supports MP3...

Like it or not... it's a defacto standard...
Yeah sure... Ogg is there... but the majority of soundbites are in MP3
these days...

I understand the whole licensing issue.. but has anyone actually
spoken to the guys and seen if an opensource solution can be provided?
