    Yes, from a fresh install. I had all media types working flawlessly as long as I was in Intrepid. For reasons that are beyond this thread, I had to install Jaunty afresh. (Thrice, actually!)

    Usually, I play mp3 with some music player or other, but just to test these things I use Totem. For FLVs I used Totem, always.

    Anywho, what sucks? This howto works - simple as that. I've used it myself on 4 Ubuntu versions now.
    Oh, I apologise for the misunderstanding. I was referring to the situation at hand, i.e. the formats not working. The original post is quite comprehensive, and I was even planning to suggest to turn this into HTML or something, since I found navigating to the different sections by scrolling quite time consuming.

    Anyhow, I have removed everything now -- codecs, plugins, mplayer, etc. I use only (pre-recorded) CDs, YouTube, and FLAC files for music.

    I used a combination of the "safe" method and in compiz settings manager deselecting the unredirect fullscreen windows.

    Everything is working perfectly now for me

    Go to the link below and use the safe method (IMO), it worked well for me but backup your OS first with Clonezilla.

    Re: Comprehensive Multimedia & Video Howto

    What have I done wrong? After a new reload of Jaunty am now implementing your excellent all in one package but suddenly I have a Java permission banner asking for an OK but I can do nothing to get it to carry on. Help!

    Try the tab key and the arrow keys, etc. I remember it does act strangely at times.

    Re: Complete Multimedia & Video How-to

    Just posting here again to report that I can now play mp3 without problems. I had never used the Medibuntu repository prior to the fresh install of Jaunty, so I assumed - initially - that I wouldn't need it. It turns out, that following the instructions on the first page to the T makes all these formats work. (Duh!)

    Thanks, ubuntu-freak, for the instructions.

    Edit: Oh, and FLV, too!
