This post refers to a specific version: Ubuntu 6.10 - Edgy Eft.
As a result this may/may not work with any newer versions.
This includes the mp3 format.
So, to install on Ubuntu 6.06 and 6.10 use the following guide.
Firstly, make sure you have the Rhythmbox application installed (Should be installed by default).
Ensure the relevant repositories are enabled.
Click System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager -> Settings -> Repositories and then click Add. Check the Community maintained (Universe)' and Non-free (Multiverse) boxes. When you close the window, click Reload.
Next, you need to install the packages. You must do this as the super user (root). If you are not the root user, you will be unable to install packages.Next, using the Terminal (Application -> Accessories -> Terminal paste the following command:
sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gxine libxine-main1 libxine-extracodecs ogle ogle-gui
This will install the required packages.NOTE: Personally, i was unable to install the package with 'gstreamer0.10-pitfdll' in the command. If you experience an error to this effect, remove it and try again.
