Could you give a link to a web site that has audio content? Then we can go through the steps.

This site wants a Quicktime plugin. I did some searching for a Linux QT plugin, without success.

How about: justsonny.com/multimedia.shtml
I  think this page uses mp3s. Yeah the home page is Quicktime.

How about: justsonny.com/multimedia.shtml

Install an audio player (xmms, audacious, mplayer, etc)

Click on the audio link in webpage

In the dialog box:

Click Open
File name: /usr/local/bin <Enter>
Select your player (xmms, audacious, mplayer, etc)
Click Open
Check Remember choice and do not show dialog again
Click Open
Enjoy!!

Note: the very first link on that page (under multimedia) requires mplayer

easy after you know what to do....can it be set to stream the audio instead of downloading?

Content delivery is determined by the host site.

Tried this on my box and ran into a quirk -- the sound keeps playing even if you close Opera. Couldn't see mplayer running either. Ended up rebooting to get it to turn off (there's probably a better way, cancelling a process or something).

To make mplayer run in the foreground:

Tools > Preferences > Advanced

Select Downloads

Select audio/mpeg

Click Edit

In the text box under Open with other application

Change /usr/local/bin/mplayer to /usr/local/bin/gmplayer

Click OK twice.


p.s. No need to reboot. Open a terminal.

tc@box:~ $ ps | grep mplayer

sudo kill [insert PID #]

Above requires one of the *gtk mplayers; the other two don't have a graphical frontend.

True... forgot about the other two.  :-[

Thanks, I'll try that (I have gtk2 mplayer).
