In 10.04 lucid my SONY CRX 140E drive reads data CDs but does not even read and audio CDs. This was not the case in Hardy and I dual boot and just checked in Windows and audio CDs are no problem there.
View 8 RepliesI want to listen to this audio file: [URL] but my real player 11.0.0.4028 gold desn play it, it says that there is a codec 28_8 missing, I go to relaplayer page, download the last release available for linux systems, but the message is the same : audio codec missing and doesn't play the audio.
I havev tried to play the audio with smplayer (not luck), vlc can play the audio but the pause button doesn't work so I have to listen the entire audio all the time I stop it playing. Is there any audio player capable od reproducing in the proper way this audio in ubuntu? No one of my video players totem, smplayer, realplayer or vlc are capable of playing this video: [URL]
I preface this by saying that all other forms of CDs and DVDs work perfectly in this machine - the problem relates exclusively to Audio CDs, either burnt or bought.
When I put and Audio CD in the drive, the mounting process starts, takes longer than usual, and during this process, the desktop icons flash off then back on again, then the CD mounts and I get an icon on the desktop.
If I right-click and select Open, the desktop icons flash off and on again, and nothing else happens.
If I right-click and select Open with Rhythmbox, the same thing happens - desktop icons flash off and on, and nothing else happens. Rhthymbox is not listed in the active processes either.
If I open Movie Player, and click on Movie in the menu, the Play disc 'Audio disc' option is greyed out.
If Rhythmbox is running, and I insert an Audio CD in the drive, Rhythmbox crashes and won't start again until I remove the Audio CD, then all is well again.
When I select Eject to remove the Audio CD, the desktop icons flash off and on again, then the CD ejects.
I've tried to use Amarok and Rhythymbox, and neither one will play an Audio CD. Rhythymbox will play music files from an external hard drive, but won't play a CD.

Basically the problem is, I can't play store bought DVDs, but I can play my copies of them.
When using MDPlayer that I added to Ubuntu, I can play the copies of my store bought DVDs, but not the originals. However, when using Ubuntu 9.10's movie player, it wont do anything and I'll have to do a force quit to close it.
I learned that this may because there is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution, as I'm sure you already knew.
...Yet, Most people have worked around these issues.
I came across the Medibuntu site: [url]
Running the Terminal, I added the bash command that adds Medibuntu's repositiry to Ubuntu. It also adds Medibuntu's GPG key to the keyring.
(The sudo wget - etc etc etc --quiet update)
Then I jumped down to the... "This command should be run in the Terminal, after adding the repository:" ...And did that. (sudo sed -e 's/ etc etc etc /medibuntu.list)
To get multimedia working, or explain what I'm doing wrong.
The problem is that none of the video players doesn't play video, they show only black window and play audio.
I have Fedora 11 Leonidas, fully up-to-date.
I have installed rpmfusion and livna repository.
I have installed following packages:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI like this linux distribution more than the others that i have used, because is more stable for my work. But there are some little problems that I can't solve. I'm using it with a laptop HP G60 and i can run OpenOffice, Mozilla and some other programs (python, grass, qgis) that used for work at the office, but when I go home and want to watch a movie with my girl, listen some music or any other simple task, i find a lot of little problems:
1. Adjust the bright of the screen, the Power Management Guidance don't do it and I really need it.
2. Can't play movies in VLC "No suitable decoder module. VLC does not support the audio or video format XVID. Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this"
3. And today I can't play music because there is a message "KDE detected that one or more internal sound devices were removed" this is: Output HDA Intel, INTEL HDMI 0 (HDMI Audio Output)
I know maybe these problems are stupid but in windows is easier to fix them. I'm tired of search in google because i just find solved problems for Ubuntu and it takes a lot of time.
to start off, i'll post the specs of the machine:
dell inspiron e1505
3.2 gb ram
1.86 ghz intel core duo
ati x1400 gfx
opensuse 11.4 kde 32 bit.
okay, here are the details: can't play any audio with amarok when desktop effects are enabled because the minute a window is moved, it will distort the audio. even when disabling desktop effects, some applications still cause this. can't play videos videos even with desktop effects disabled because of the same reason.
i just switched from ubuntu and when i ran version 11.04, i had to disable kms to do anything. i tried on opensuse 11.4 and the audio was flawless but the gfx went all to hell.
Whenever I plug my Zune in, Rhythmbox recognizes all the songs on it but when I doubleclick on a song to play it, the song doesn't play and Rhythmbox quits. Any suggestions on how to fix it? I'm running a Dell XPS 410 with 4GB RAM and a 1.75 GHz processor.Also, I imported a CD and it plays fine.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have only been using Ubuntu since shortly after Lucid was released. I am a new convert and use it to run a back-up device / media server I have a total of 5 hard drives in the device. I have the Lucid system files written to /dev/sde. I am running a Raid 1 array with mdadm on /dev/sdc and /dev/sdd. I have been prepping to run a second raid 1 array with /dev/sdb and /dev/sda with the ext4 file system. I formatted /dev/sda to have a full partition of /dev/ sda1. I then went to do the same to /dev/sdb and the drive was missing from both gparted and the native disk utility. My array with sdc and sdd is still running with both drives working fine.I swapped the sata cable from sda and sdb with no change. The system will not recognize sdb no matter what I do but it does skip /dev/sdb in boot up which tells me it does see it.I have provide the output of the commands df, fdisk -l, and cat /proc/mdstat.

I was wondering what most xubuntu users use to play audio CDs in XFCE. My wife's laptop runs XFCE, and I had a time this last weekend getting it to actually play a CD correctly.It had been configured to load CDs in "listen" audio player, but as far as I can tell listen doesn't even play CD audio. There was nothing in the menu that allowed loading a disc.I tried setting it to Totem, which worked ok until the first track ended. It then stopped, and there was no way to make it continue and play the second track, or get a track listing. Odd, since it has an option for audio CD in the menu.Next I tried mplayer, which worked for a while, but had to be started from the command line since I couldn't get a disc to load from the GUI. After a couple of attempts at this, mplayer locked up the whole desktop.
Next I tried VLC, since it usually sweeps in and saves the day when all else fails. Aside from the annoyance of having to make about six to eight clicks to get an audio CD playing, it did work except that the audio skipped badly and after a few minutes it just died and wouldn't play any more.I finally found a program that worked: KSCD. It's a KDE application designed solely for the purpose of playing audio CDs, and it worked flawlessly.I don't have a problem running KDE apps on XFCE if I have to, but I just think it's odd I had so much trouble getting a program that would reliably do something so straightforward and standard, and wondered if I'd missed something obvious that would have been a better solution.
Through the command prompt, mainly wav files, wanted to see if there is any way to get this done?That would be the pc speaker on the board, I can get it to beep at frequencies.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was having a terrible time playing some WMV files and I finally got it working this way:
Based on this: [URL]
Step 1 Add the Medibuntu repositories to sources
Code:
gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
by adding this at the bottom of the file then saving
Code:
#medibuntu repositories
deb [URL] lucid free non-free
Step 2 Update for that change to take effect
Code:
sudo apt-get update
Step 3 Install the w32codecs [you won't find it if Medibuntu repositories are not in place]
Code:
sudo apt-get install w32codecs
Step 4 Install Kplayer [so far the only player I can get to work for WMV files]
Code:
sudo apt-get install kplayer

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx)
I just installed 10.04 and am pleased w/ things, for the most part.
However, I cannot get a DVD disc to play (a movie, for instance) or be recognized unless I shut down the system and restart (provided I have already launched a Web video, or something). The DVD-ROM is dead to the world as far as disc recognition goes.
Things were just great in Karmic so this is completely confusing to me.
Does anyone have a fix?
just updated to lucid and i went to install medibuntu and following the instructions on this page [URL] just like i did in Karmic but after i have done everything that i had to do in Karmic to get it to work i tried to play a dvd in totem and it pops up and says
The required software to play this file is not installed. You need to install suitable plugins to play media files. Do you want to search for a plugin that supports the selected file?
The search will also include software which is not officially supported.

I use Slackware full-time on my personal machine, a Lenovo T61, and I've used Slackware happily for the past 15 years. I've always been able to find answers to my questions by searching, but this time I'm stumped and find myself posting my first question ever to a help site. Recently installed Slackware 13.0 out of the box, which has KDE 4.2.4. I've added myself as a regular user, and made sure I'm a member of the audio and cdrom groups. I've configured sound with alsaconf and alsamixer, and sound works fine when playing digital files (audio and video). I can mount data CDs and DVDs, and read them with Dolphin. When I insert an audio CD, I can't get any application to see it, except for the "Last plugged in device" widget, which only gives me K3B as an option to rip the CD - no option to play the CD. If I allow K3B to launch, that application can see the tracks. KDE 4 does not have good support for playing audio CDs. I've seen various suggestions for fixes that relate to udev, HAL and adding actions. I'm out of my league here, as I'm a casual user, not one who can dive into these details. My guess is that udev is OK because K3B can see the audio CD. When I look at /usr/share/apps/solid/actions, I see the following:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2871 2009-03-26 07:42 test-predicate-openinwindow.desktop
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2385 2009-04-02 23:16 k3b_videodvd_rip.desktop
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 861 2009-04-02 23:16 k3b_create_data_project_from_blank_medium.desktop
[code]...
There are no actions that appear to relate to start playing a CD, so I think this is where the problem lies, but I'm not sure, and if it is, I don't know how to fix it. Things have gotten a lot more complicated over the years...Playing an audio CD should be a simple task, and I'm embarrassed that it's taking so long to debug this problem.
i was recently running the latest xubunto, and decided to upgrade when the upgrade manager offered me however ever since vie upgraded my sound no longer works neither does wine. I have reinstalled wine but nothing has happened but i am at a loss of what to do with the sound. It used to work with no extra configuration before the upgrade i am running a dell inspiron 530.
