neddie Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Yay! So do I need to do anything other than just install lame to get the mp3 options? I just installed lame from urpmi, and when I do rpm -qa | grep "lame" I only get one entry, lame-3.96.1-1plf. Is that enough? Like I said, lame works from the command line so am I just missing the bit that ties it to Konqueror? Or just a switch somewhere to enable it? Thanks!

pmpatrick Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 It's definitely a kde package but I don't remember which one. It might be one of the kdemultimedia packages. Here's one I have installed that looks promising, kdebase-servicemenu: Name: kdebase-servicemenuVersion: 10.1-4mdk Size: 32 KB Summary: Service Menu for kdebase. Description: Regroup all konqueror service menu. Files: /usr/share/apps /usr/share/apps/konqueror /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/compress-zip-file.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/compress-zip.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/convertpdftops.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/convertpdftotxt.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/convertpstopdf.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/lame-decode.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/lame-encode.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/mpg321-decode.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/oggdec.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/oggenc.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/uncompress-gz.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/uncompress-tgz.desktop /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/uncompress-zip.desktop At least it mentions something about lame. IIRC I was trying to get mp3 in the koqueror audio Cd browser and just kept adding stuff and it started working. It must have been something in kdemultimedia or the kdebase-servicemenu package.

neddie Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Hi, thanks for your help! Alas, I've already got kdebase-servicemenu and a bunch of kdemultimedia packages. And I've got the files lame-decode and lame-encode.desktop in /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus. Maybe I need to update all these packages? Maybe it's just broken in the standard LE2005 release. I was hoping it was a config switch rather than a 30MB+ download, seeing as the ogg bit works fine. I'll give the download a go over the weekend. Thanks!

pmpatrick Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Maybe it was a lame library. Compare your output with mine: $ rpm -qa | grep lame gstreamer-lame-0.8.8-1plf liblame0-3.96.1-1plf lame-3.96.1-1plf I'm pretty sure the mp3 ioslave needs the liblame package. It wasn't clear from your prior post whether you had liblame. Gstreamer is for gnome stuff and shouldn't effect kde. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neddie Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Ahaa, that could well be it! No, as I said I only have ONE entry from that command, just lame. I figured if lame needed liblame it would pull it in automatically, and because lame works fine from the command line I figured it wasn't needed. Thanks for the tip, I'll add that package and retest.
