I cant play m4a files with amarok. They do not even appear in the list of files when browsing.
It is configured to use gstreamer and I have the following plugins installed
PackageKit-gstreamer-plugin-0.7.5-1.fc17.i686 gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-extras-0.10.23-7.fc17.i686 phonon-backend-gstreamer-4.6.0-1.fc17.i686 gstreamer-plugins-ugly-0.10.19-1.fc17.i686 gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.31-4.fc17.i686 qt-gstreamer-0.10.2-1.fc17.i686 gstreamer-plugins-bad-0.10.22-4.fc17.i686 gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-0.10.23-7.fc17.i686 gstreamer-tools-0.10.36-1.fc17.i686 gstreamer-ffmpeg-0.10.13-2.fc17.i686 gstreamer-0.10.36-1.fc17.i686 gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.36-1.fc17.i686
mplayer of course plays it with no problems.
Any idea what I might be missing?

It may require taglib-extras package from yum for MP4 audio in amarok

I believe amarok is a KDE app. As far as I know KDE apps uses phonon for multimedia playback. So maybe you need these two:
phonon.x86_64 phonon-backend-gstreamer.x86_64
HTH

I don't use amarok, neither do I have any m4a files. If you can point me to a file, I could test and see if it works.

I think it is a bug in the file browser. If I drag drop the folder into the playlist, it plays properly.

I've opened a bug report
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=303253
but it seems that other people have randomly hit this issue many times in the past.

I installed amarok[1]; at first while playing your file there was no sound, but on increasing the volume just a bit everything went to normal. I had opened the file from the file browser (no drag and drop).
Hope this helps
PS: I use XFCE.

no idea then. maybe it is a KDE issue..... which version are you using?
when you say file browser. do you mean amarok file browser? or XFCE's?
because my problem is inside Amarok file browser.

You're sending your posts both to the fedora list and to the newsgroup gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general. I'd not comment, but I'm getting everything from you twice, through the list. Does anybody else see this?

Whatever is in the Fedora repo. From the yum log I see it was 2.5.0-9.fc17.

Amarok file browser (as I mentioned, I didn't try drag and drop).
Hope this helps.

Probably, if you already had KDE installed, you'd have had all twelve already.
Yes but my point was I can understand a media player depending on media libs like phonon-* or gstreamer-* but 5-6 different desktop libs seems rather bloated.
