I recently upgraded from Feisty to Hardy (via a full wipe/install). In Feisty, I could open up a terminal and use the 'play file.mp3' to play my music files. I found it very handy to double check my music files before commiting them to my server.
Under Hardy, I had to 'sudo apt-get install sox' to get the play command but it keeps giving the following error:
play soxio: Failed reading `file.mp3': unknown file type `auto'
I tried installing both the ubuntu- and kubuntu-restricted-extras thinking it was just a missing codec but still no luck.
Anyone know what I'm missing?
UPDATE: Ok - guess I'm 0 for 2 today...solved using 'sudo apt-get install libsox-fmt-all'
Thanks,
Beemer
