    rhythmbox decoder plugins

    Hi everyone,
    This is my first attempt at using Linux, I used to use XP. I am having problems with rythmbox. I am unable to play a *.pls file from an internet radio station;

    http://www.shoutcast.com/sbin/shoutc...e=filename.pls


    when I try to listen it tells me I need to install a decoder. how do I do this? Has this something to do with yum?

    help would be welcome.

    have u got gstreamer installed?

    install the livna repo http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-7.rpm

    i think you'll need the

    gstreamer-plugins-ugly-0.10.5-2.lvn7.i386.rpm

    and

    gstreamer-plugins-bad-0.10.5-3.lvn7.i386.rpm

    and

    gstreamer-ffmpeg-0.10.2-2.lvn7.i386.rpm

    yum should handle the dependancies during install of those 3 rpm's

    not sure, when I select Applications/Add Remove Software I get told that

    Another application is running which is accessing software information.

    how do I close that application? there is nothing showing on the panel.

    Try

    su -
    rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-7.rpm
    yum install gstreamer-*

    And try exaile for internet radio & media player as it has a good shoutcast plugin

    yum install exaile

    To disable the other app ( yum-updatesd ) try


    su -
    chkconfig --level 12345 yum-updatesd off
