Hello,

I have been using the previous versions of amarok also. The problem I encounter is that I never get to play any songs using amarok. When I build playlists of many songs or just a single song, the player just goes by each song but does not play any. Can anybody help me over this problem.

You need to install the mp3 codecs I guess. And make sure you use the phonon-xine-backend, as gstreamer is quite buggy.

Sorry, I can't help you further, as you didn't give more specifications about which exact Amarok 2 version you are talking about, nor which distribution and KDE version you are using...


Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...
