Can anybody please suggest a suitable plugin to enable playing of mp3 files with either Totem or Rythmbox. Both of these come as part of the CentOS 5 package, but strangely neither has the necessary plugin for mp3, which surely is a common enough format in the music world? Thanks,Andy
This is covered in the CentOS general FAQ (http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/General?highlight=%28mp3%29#q19).
The MP3 codec is not included in CentOS becausing of licensing issues. Both Totem and Rhythmbox use the gstreamer libraries for handling different audio types, so you will need to get the appropriate gstreamer-plugins package from your favorite third-party repository. I think the mp3 codec (libgstlame.so) is in the gstreamer-plugins-ugly package, available at RPMforge.
