In Red Hat 8.0, part of this functionality relied on hard-coded references to a command-line MP3 decoder. I'm told that Red Hat removed all these references, so even if you install something like mpg123, Nautilus still won't play MP3s. In Red Hat 8.1, I think there is a new media backend called gstreamer. In theory, it should be easy to add MP3 support just by replacing the gstreamer-plugins package with one that supports MP3. Perhaps somebody could test this theory. ;-) -- Michael Wardle Adacel Technologies -- Phoebe-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/phoebe-list
