I just installed Ubuntu desktop 13.04 in my computer, dual boot with windows 7.
How to install mp3 plugin? Because I want to listen to music and watch movie, but the player requires plugin? How to solve this problem?
I have installed Ubuntu 11.10 server.. so command line only.
I need to be able to play audio (.mp3 & .wav) files via the command line!
I've installed the MPD & Audacious packages... and copied some files to a location specified in the .conf file.
But what do I do to acutally play the .mp3 files??
Also, how can I confirm the AUDIO is working correctly?
I prefer Clementine as my music player. I'd like to completely remove the default player (currently Banshee) and replace it with Clementine.
Can I do this, without breaking Ubuntu?
I use OSD Lyrics and CoverGloobus. They are good, they search and eventually download lyrics, when they can find them. The sources used by OSD Lyrics, for example, are rather limited (although I love the way it displays them. The latter accesses a reacher database, but the display is not adjustable as far as I know). Couldn't find a way to make these programs see lyrics from a file selected by me.
What I want is to be able to add the lyrics myself, and even to embed them into the music file - and, of course, to display them from there. The last feature alone would be very valuable to me, as I have a large music database with lyrics already embedded, but I cannot see them with these programs: they are just looking for new lyrics on the Internet, although the lyrics are on my computer.
In Windows I used Foobar2000 to find, display and embed lyrics (with the add-on lyricsgrabber) and when I needed to add the lyrics manually I used to embed them in MediaMonkey (this player allows finding them, but also editing and embedding - just by copy/paste). I am not able to run MediaMonkey in Wine. Foobar works, but with a lot of problems. And anyway, Wine is of last resort.
I am looking for a Linux program that would be able to do something similar to what I have described above.
When I was using Windows, I had an application called MiniLyrics which let me display the lyrics of the music files played. The application automatically downloads the lyrics and displays them while the song plays. Is there a similar application in Ubuntu that I could use?
