To play MP3s in Fedora, you have to install a different package depending on
which Fedora MP3 player you want to use. If you're not sure which one to
pick, Rhythmbox is the standard. It's in the "Applications" menu,
under "Sound & Video" -- it's called "Rhythmbox Music
Player." It looks kind of like iTunes when you run it.
Here's how to install the correct MP3 plugin:
- Make sure that you're using my yum configuration from the installing software question.
- Open a Terminal.
- Become root: su -
- Now, install the correct plugin depending on which MP3 player you
want to use:
- For Rhythmbox or Totem:
yum install gstreamer-plugins-ugly
- For Audacious (which is like XMMS or Winamp):
yum install audacious-plugins-freeworld-mp3
- For Rhythmbox or Totem:
Now you should be able to play MP3s in your favorite Fedora MP3 player!
