You need to go to your Software Sources, to the Third-Party Software
tab and add that address as a repository. Then just go to terminal
and:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
...if you have the old versions installed. If not, just:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mplayer mencoder
Oops...I realized that I gave the insrtuctions for manually adding a repo.
You need to go to the Updates tab of Software Sources and checkmark
Unsupported updates (gutsy-backports) and then run the same commands
I listed in my last post.
Sorry about that!

I was very short in my answer for a reason. As much as we can all
point you at how to activate backports, there are appropriate places
to ask things like this such as launchpad answers, the forums, mailing

What is the status of this fix now?
Has it made it into the 7.10 repositories yet?
How can it be used to fix the Devede problem?

I guress the official fix is only available to the next version, or at some
backport repository.
You may however, find my fix at previous messages, where I pint a simple

Anyway, hopefully the new mplayer/mencoder package will be available in

That is what I aim for, yes. Additionally, I'll also compile the 1.0rc2
So it suggests that there is some conflict somewhere with another package I

I was one of the first to report this problem, and have used the amended
version from the Devede web site to get round it.
A few weeks ago, I installed Kubuntu 7.10 on a spare machine and downloaded
all the updates to make it into the full release version.
I decided to install Devede just to
May be Debian already forces a working codec for MP3 or they have applied
the patch from CVS to fix the bug. As reported, it will be fixed on Ubuntu
8.04 (am I right?). Nothing for Gutsy though.

Name anything you want. The only important thing is be in the right
directory wehn running the patch command and and use the correct path to the

Fabio, I'll give it a try. What should I name the patch file.
I remember mplayer / gmplayer have no clear default vo output. I gues, it
would be best if the global configuration /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf had
something like
vo=xv,x11
added, to ensure it will always work on mplayer, gmplayer and mplayer
plugin.
Mine already has it (I added) and I remember

that is happening is that Devede will just be killed off, as it is non

I come from Debian and certainly I understand very well your point.
That's why I gave the solution I gave. MPlayer can decode MP3 through some

Maybe the developers just can't fix it, it's a VERY complex package.
