From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020830 Description of problem: Unable to add directories of mp3 files to xmms using the playlist 'add dir' option. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start xmms 2.Click 'pl' to show playlist (if not already open) 3.Right click 'add', pick 'Dir' 4.Select a directory with mp3 files. Actual Results: The playlist remains empty. Expected Results: The playlist should be filled with mp3 files. It appears mp3 support is missing from this build of xmms. As an end-user, to have the directory fill silently fail is strange. A popup could be presented along the lines 'no audio files in a supported format found' Additional info: I imagine it's mp3-patent related, and hence not something easily fixed. A higher profile note of this rather than just failing to do anything leaving the user wonderig if they did the right thing would be good.
