I have googled for MP3 support for Amarok but I have been unsuccessful. I tried both helix and xine engines and every time I try to drop in a MP3

file, Amarok reports that MP3 files are not supported.

Can someone tell me what I need to do to get MP3 support working?

Thanks!

If you look at the Unofficial Fedora FAQ it will tell you how to enable the
repositories that you need that will enable you to install the software
required to get mp3's working in Fedora and Amarok.

Well, I was able to install xine-mp3, and I this works in xine. But Amarok

says it does not support it. It won't even play it even if it is in my playlist.

Following the Unoffical Fedora FAQ I tried:

+ yum install kdemultimedia-extras-nonfree << does not exist
+ yum install audacious-plugins-nonfree-mp3 << does not exist
+ yum install gstreamer-plugins-ugly << does not exist

I could be wrong but the official fedora repositories do not contain nonfree software.
I think you need to add the livna repository for what you want.
