Brasero is unable to find a plug in which supports .MP3 files.


I have installed the Wubi version of Ubuntu 10.04 on my Dell 1537 Studio laptop. Additionally, I have installed the GDK plug ins for .MP3 file support. When the installation completed, there was a message indicating the installation was successful, but it was unable to install one plug in. I am able to play .MP3's, but I can not add them to an audio disk project in Brasero. When I have Brasero do a search for the missing software, it can not find what it needs. What do I need to do? Thank you.

Hi.Not sure about Ubuntu cos I have never used it but I know on Slackware I need gstreamer plugins for my xfburn to make audio cd's.Might be worth a try until an Ubuntu guru answers your question.Cheers.

You have to install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package. Either that or GStreamer, as the member above me said. If you have any more problems with Ubuntu, PM me, as I am the Ubuntu guru you are looking for.

I managed to install the restricted extras, but that still didn't fix the problem.
