install mp3 codec on debian
The mp3 codec on debian is the lame package. It's not located on the default debian repositories.
You need this package if you want to convert audio files into mp3 format (through vlc or soundconverter). It is used by Gstreamer which is in turn used by tons of sotwares !
To install this codec, do as follow:
- edit your repository list "sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list"
- add the following entry: "deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org stable main"
- save and close
- run "sudo apt-get update"
- install lame and gstreamer0.10-lame packages: "sudo apt-get install lame gstreamer0.10-lame"
That's it.
You can comment back the newly added repository if you want.
You can now convert your audio files into mp3 format.
