You just have to get used to yum and adding new repositories, I think,
that's all. After a day or so it's normal.

So you obviously have not added the livna repository to your
/etc/yum.conf.

Edit your /etc/yum.conf (e.g. with gedit) as root:
# gedit /etc/yum.conf

Add the following lines:

########################
### Livna Repository ###
########################

[livna-stable]
name=Livna.org Fedora Compatible Packages (stable)
baseurl= http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/yum/stable
gpgcheck=1

Save the changes.

Then add the gpg-key of livna as root:
# rpm --import http://rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY

After that you should be able to get mp3 support. Do as root:
# yum install xmms-mp3
