I have been using C 5 for 13 months. Thus I am certainly not an expert
on it or on Linux generally.

I have never ever had any problem whatsoever playing MP3 files on Centos
5.x

I use Audacity as my preferred audio programme, generally importing .wav
files and exporting them as .mp3 files. The mp3 files simply play and I
have never had a problem. Perhaps I obtained the correct codecs without
being aware they were fundamental to playing MP3 on Centos/Gnome.

My repos are:-

CentOS-Base.repo
CentOS-Debuginfo.repo
CentOS-Media.repo
CentOS-Vault.repo
elrepo.repo
epel.repo
epel-testing.repo
kbsingh-CentOS-Misc.repo
rpmforge.repo

which specific codec do you need to play mp3 files in Centos ?
