Fedora Core 8 + Rhythmbox 0.11.3: GStreamer plugins to decode "MP3" files cannot be found

Totally Burned
Hi,

I recently installed Fedora Core 8, which includes Rhythmbox 0.11.3 as a music player.

When I try to import and play MP3 files, Rhythmbox returns the message 'GStreamer plugins to decode "MP3" files cannot be found'.

By any chance, could anyone tell me where to get the plugins from and how to install them?

Many thanks if so :)

David

Try to open an mp3 with Totem first, it should tell you how to obtain
the free codec from Fluendo.

I wonder why Rhythmbox doesn't do the same.
