Other music players have different issues, I'm just trying to find
*one* that works.  I.e.:-

    exaile - doesn't play at all, it gives an error "Playback error
    encountered! playsink0: Possible audio device error, is it plugged
    in?

    parole - gives the error "Gstreamer backend error - Could not
    initialise Xv output"

    vlc - seems a bit like gmusicbrowser but not quite the same

If they all reported the same error or had the same fault it would be
rather easier to diagnose!

Just running from the command line produces the following:-

    chris@acer-aspire:~$ gmusicbrowser
    Reading saved tags in /home/chris/.config/gmusicbrowser/gmbrc ...
    Reading saved tags in /home/chris/.config/gmusicbrowser/gmbrc ... done
    These commands were not found : mpg123, flac123, mpg321, ogg123
     => these file types won't be played by the 123 output : mp3, oga, flac

Is that "These commands were not found" my problem?

Thanks for responding.
