streamtuner, amarok, kaffiene (hijacked from: install RealPlayer

[newburghmark at aol.com]

The following is how I fixed this problem.  I am running all streams in 
Totem.

Install Add/Remove Package manager (i think that this is part of Gnome, 
so you might have to install Gnome.)

Open Add/ Remove Package Manager.

Do a search for gstream

It will show the following

Install gstreamer ffm video plug in and gstreamer extra plug ins

Be sure that Totem is fully installed.  It shows up in the start menu 
as "movie Player" in KDE desktop.

When you run the install, it will make you swear on a stack of bibles 
that you are  standing in a country where downloading this is legal, 
andonly downloading it for research purposes.  Pretend that you are a 
computer programmer in one of those countries where you can't drink the 
water and say "yes."  Or call your attorney and ask him.


It takes Totem a little longer to load the files than Windows Media 
Player.  This will give you time to check and see if Bill Gates is 
standing over your shoulder trying to serve you with papers on a 
lawsuit.  If you are watching the CBC news, it should take about the 
time it takes to sing "O Canada!" In both English and French.

Then it will run.  The resolution might be a little less, or it might 
be the site.

Why run an old edition of Windows when you can run the latest edition 
of Linux for free?  For a free download, go to WWW.Kubuntu.com

What´s bizarre is, I have all of the indicated libs installed.

xmms plays mp3 for me, and mplayer plays most video formats,
including even wmv.   And k3b has mp3 support,
but, no video in kaffiene, and no mp3 in amarok.
