There is an additional library to allow playing of CD+G formats, but still nothing that I saw can handle digital <Audio>+G formats, the most common being MP3+G. I'll just have to keep looking for now. I'd really love to be able to have a truly professional digital karaoke package that runs with Fedora - even if it were closed source at this point. I guess that may mean continuing to bother Tricerasoft. Other ideas are certainly welcome!
