Can't Play Mp3s On Rh9

[DWk]

Hello. Ok, bare wit me I got a lil rusty on linux. I just installed RH9, got NTFS support for it, transferred some mp3s from the ntfs to my home folder, and when I try to play them, nothing happens. I've googled, saw a few of the same, but no solution.

Any ideas?
Thanks

Grap this xmms mp3 rpm. Log in as root or su from a terminal.

type in:

rpm -ivh xmms-mp3-1.2.7-13.p.i386.rpm

That should add mp3 support to your xmms.

Bleh wish everything was that easy

Now that we are here.... is there a way to transfer my favorites in windows to RH?

Mount the drive. Then import the bookmarks with your Linux browser.

Same extensions?

What extensions? Just import the bookmarks just like you would on Windows.

.url

The ones located in the favorites folder in windows.... I see no way of adding them in Mozilla (yes, I tried the import utility, but it adds only .xhtml files)

It&#39;s really not that complicated. Open up a the .url file with a text editor, copy and paste the url&#39;s to another file and save it as whatever format the browser uses. Btw, Mozilla imports a lot more than .xhtml.

Strange, all this talking and you never even told me what browser you were using nor what mp3 player. There are tons for both.


If all else fails then use Konqueror it has an explicit option for adding ie favorites.

Keke

XMMS and Mozilla.

I have yet to try lots of things. Any idea for a video player?
