[Bug 77059] Re: MP3 Support is Broken In Feisty

[Johan Larsson]

I had similar problems, using Gutsy Tribe 4. Amarok freezes up when
complaining of lack of mp3 support.

(But now, looking at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats again, I
see that I probably didn't follow the instructions completely. I only
installed the "Ubuntu restricted extras" package as suggested in the
main part in the beginning of the document: "Follow these steps to play
most common multimedia formats, including MP3 ..."; install" Ubuntu
restricted extras". I didn't notice that there were additional
instructions several sections and mouseclicks away on other pages -
"install the package libxine1-ffmpeg (which will install libmad0 as
well)".)

However, after deleting the xine catalog.cache file and installing the
"Xine extra plugins" as the description in the Adept Manager said
"Codecs to play mp3 ... in Amarok ..." Amarok didn't complain anymore
and happily played my mp3 tracks.
