None of the default players in ubuntu support MP3. I tried adding gStream codec library as well as Xine codec library. These did help in MPEG decoding. My players (totem, xine) both play MPEG files now. But still no luck with MP3s.
I even installed Real Player and VLC media player(In windows, I have never found a player which plays as many formats as this player does). To my astonishment still I was unable to play MP3 files.
Can anyone please lend a helping hand? (I've tried Ubuntu help from official site, they say installing either gStream library or xine library will solve my problem. But they didn't!).
