Thanks Barry, I've downloaded and installed mpg123 etc i386.rpm for rhel 4 (CentOS 4.4), but still can't play MP3 files - any idea what I have to do next to get it working?
Thanks, Andy
What you are looking for is xmms-mp3 from rpmforge. It is located on that same site you were given before. Dag's site. You can also add the rpmforge to your yum repo list to get access without havin' to browse about. That's up to you and off topic though.
I do not recall if you need to actually enable the plugin within xmms though. You can do so by right clicking the xmms main window and left clicking "Options" and then Preferences. You'll be greeted with a new window and you'll make note of the first tab "Audio I/O Plugins". Select (click one time) MPEG Layer 1/2/3 Player 1.2.10 [libmpg123.so] The version number may be different for you. Click the "Enable Plugin" check box or button. Click Okay and then you should be good to go.
