can't play legit cd ( .wav ) in Ubuntu ??

[shaker25]

Hi Guys,

I can't seem to find a Gnome equivalent to amarok that will play my library of CD's
as many of you are aware amarok 2 was released and there's no support in gnome for it.
I've tried to run the Cd's from exaile, rhythm box, and banshee.
I can get files to come up in totem but only one at a time, it won't play the whole cd.

anyway I thought exaile would do it, but it allows me to browse to the CDrom but doesn't see the disc?

any hints or tips, maybe something I'm missing.

I'm Running Jaunty and wondering also if there's a way I can download the older version of Amarok ? It just worked!!!

you can use Amarok in Ubuntu, it'll just install a few KDE libraries.

also run this:

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras

Figured this our in exaile.
I used to use Amarok 1
but I can't get amarok 2 to work in ubuntu, I've got the restricted extras installed.
but it still freezes.

[jmadero]

sudo apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg

[shaker25]

sudo apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg

Nope, not missing a a xine codec like in amarok.
the discs dont' play.....aren't seen by exaile even though they disc is seen as an audio disc when browsing.

Thanks though!!

Have you tried out VLC in Synaptic? After installing VLC change prefered application (open with) with VLC.

try to install real player, it is good player and works for me
goto the official website of Real Player and install it, it is a .bin file so easy to install but not open source, and post here what happens with you
