I can't even get XMMS to play mp3s or midis on either of my crappy setups of (shudder) Red Hat Personal 8 or (double shudder) TurboLinux Workstation (some ancient version) :-?
Dont mean to hijack this thread but DrV, Multimedia with Linux is a tricky thing. But I have been able to watch all kinds of video formats on Xine/GMplayer and listen to live streams/mp3s etc... on XMMS.
BTW Redhat had removed mp3 support due to copyright problems. But there are patches/workarounds available. Just download xine and compile it, you'll be able to play almost all formats.
