linux-howto

http://askubuntu.com – I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and found out that Rhythmbox won't work-- it keeps saying that it requires plugins but everytime I lookup mp3 plugins it appears that the ones that are all needed are already installed-- what do I do fr. here? Help!!! P.S.: I'm a newbie so any handholding would be deeply appreciated. :) (HowTos)

I installed this repository and updated it.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fossfreedom/rhythmbox-plugins sudo apt-get update

And then installed the plugins:

sudo apt-get install rhythmbox-plugin-complete

Everything seemed to install fine and most if not all (didn't check everyone) of the other plugins are in RhythmBox, but the Pandora one wont come up.

Rhythmbox Equalizer 46 weeks 4 hours ago

Hello,

I was having an issue with the pulseaudio-equalizer an rhythmbox, sound gets really crackly but so far only with rhythmbox, youtube sounds just fine. I tried installing the rhythmbox equalizer thinking I can just use this for now as a work around, I don't mind the extra few clicks to disable one equalizer for a short time then enable it later.

When i like put a plugin in rhythmbox (Ubuntu 11.10) this doesn't load anything... put my plugins in .gnome2/rhythmbox/plugins and /usr/lib/rhythmbox/plugins and is useless!

Hello, does anyone know how to get the Rhythmboy tray-icon plugin to work?

I followed these instructions to add plugins: http://askubuntu.com/questions/14794...thmbox-plugins

But there is no tray-icon showing up. Plugin is activated, I checked alreaday. Notice: I am not talking about the notification icon in the volume menu.

Previous I have never used rhythmbox by default because it seemed to be lacking in features to me. Just my personal opinion.

With rhythmbox back in 12.04 will ubuntu give it some attention to give it some usability one thing that was majorly missing on my last use of rhythmbox was an equalizer which is the most basic of requirements for an audio player let alone a preamp.

Rhythmbox no sound 33 weeks 1 day ago

today when i started Rhythmbox and played a song then there is sound in it.

I am having some trouble with RhythmBox. It runs fine until I install the package (Synaptics) Rhythmbox plugins 0.12.8-0.

After I install this package and then open RhythmBox, the applications opens for a few seconds and then closes (terminates).

Configuration is Ubuntu Lucid, 64 bit OS

I've been testing out the new WebUpd8 PPA for Rhythmbox which I used to upgrade from Rhythmbox v2.97 to v2.98.

However, when I added this PPA, when using my favourite plugins replaygain and coverart-browser, Rhythmbox crashes with a segmentation fault.

Worse, when this crash happens, my Unity desktop becomes unstable, with various applications failing to start with similar segmentation faults.
