Amarok is not playing rm on Ubuntu 7.04

mesh2005 · 01-29-2008, 02:41 AM

Amarok was playing rm files correctly on Ubuntu 6.06, after I moved to Ubuntu 7.04 it is unable to play rm files. No error is given, just it displays 'Play Finished' once I click play!! no sound at all. Realplayer works on 7.04 but it sucks, no playlist. I installed xine, w32codecs but none solved the problem. Please advice.
Thank you

You may need to install the helix engine as xine (the default amarok engine I think) doesn't support rm files. Helixplayer uses the same code as Realplayer but doesn't support mp3s so you will need both engines. There should be more info on http://amarok.kde.org
