exaile not working

Hello guys. I recently installed exaile and mplayer.exaile is not playing mp3 files.can u tell me the required plugins(it is asking that a gstreamer plugin is not installed) and also there is some disturbance in mplayer when it is playing videos.should i change video outpit modes or something? thanking u.

i coudn’t play mp3’s in exaile either. then i went to edit->preferences->advanced->playback sink it was set to (use gconf settings by defaults). I changed that to “auto” and it started playing all types of media.
hope this helps.

Have you installed all necessary codecs and packages from The Packman repository, also try using the xine engine, instead of gstreamer.

I tried that but didn’t work for me .But how to change the engine?i can’t see in preferences…

I had the same problem and I solved it in this way. I just installed gstreamer010-plugins-bad (you may need to install some other codes from the same repositories) from Pakman repositories (you can find it on PackMan :: home). Installing all gstreamer plugins from that repositories and Exaile itself may be good idea

Thanks. The Packman updates worked for me
