That entirely depends on taglib-extras and the Phonon backend. Please make sure both are installed correctly,eventually try another phonon backend. We recommend both the gstreamer or the vlc backend.
Comment 2 Vovochka 2011-08-03 11:00:49 UTC
I've tried both. Vlc and gstreamer.
libtag-extras is 1.0.1
Comment 3 Vovochka 2011-08-03 11:09:49 UTC
Sorry for that.

I was confused by libtag-extras. But i don't have taglib-extras.
After installing taglib-extras everything work fine.
Comment 4 Vovochka 2011-08-03 11:19:59 UTC
In fact i lied again.

libtag-extras and taglib-extras are the same.

Everything works with vlc backend, but not with gstreamer.
will try to install gstreamer-ugly  later.
Comment 5 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-08-05 07:39:47 UTC
Thank you for the feedback. You need indeed all codecs from gstreamer.
Comment 6 Vovochka 2011-08-05 11:10:21 UTC
I've installed  ugly plugins, but still nothing.
About gstreamer: i've got:
i | PackageKit-gstreamer-plugin - 0.6.14
i | gstreamer-0_10 - 0.10.35            
i | gstreamer-0_10-fluendo-mp3 - 12           
i | gstreamer-0_10-plugin-gnomevfs - 0.10.32
i | gstreamer-0_10-plugins-bad - 0.10.22               
i | gstreamer-0_10-plugins-base - 0.10.35              
i | gstreamer-0_10-plugins-good - 0.10.28-1.2.1
i | gstreamer-0_10-plugins-good-lang - 0.10.28
i | gstreamer-0_10-plugins-ugly - 0.10.18               
i | libgstreamer-0_10-0 - 0.10.35
i | libgstreamer-0_10-0-32bit - 0.10.32                 
i | phonon-backend-gstreamer-0_10 - 4.5.0

But i still can't play ape files vie gstreamer backend.
Comment 7 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-08-07 10:15:50 UTC
Please check with your distribution that the ape playback is indeed enabled for taglib-extraas.
Comment 8 Vovochka 2011-08-07 11:56:09 UTC
I can't find any compile options for taglib-extras.
So, how can i check it?
Comment 9 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-08-08 07:51:05 UTC
My confusion again: it only works with the vlc backend, not depending on taglib at a
