I'm trying to get Kubuntu running perfectly on my MacBook under Parallels in OS X and am almost there. The only thing holding me back is getting audio/video working properly.
What codecs do I need to apt-get to be able to listen to mp3s on amaroK and watch XviD/DivX/Matroska/etc. videos as well?
When I try to play music on amaroK, I get an mp3 not supported error which caused amaroK to crash before I can do anything. I tried installing libxine-extracodecs like the amaroK site says. However, when I install it and try to play an mp3, amaroK plays the mp3 about twice as fast as it should. It sounds high-pitched and skips.
I've tried installing the drivers through Automatix on both Ubuntu and Kubuntu. So far, no luck playing audio/video properly. That fast playing/skipping thing is the only thing preventing me from loving Kubuntu. Please help me out here.
A preemptive 'thanks a lot' to whoever helps me get this problem solved.
