Re: [libreoffice-users] OT : good cd import software on linux

Hi :)
Good point about the codecs!  I usually ruin through "Medibuntu" to get all the extra codecs and 
things from them 
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
and then install mplayer and vlc player to get the last remaining ones.  


Also i generally try to run through these now.  I know it's command-line rather than point&click 
but i find it oddly easier for these.  I'm sure there is some fancy linuxy way of adding all the 
commands together (especially those last 3!) but i keep each on a separate line in case i want to 
ignore 1 or 2.  

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc 
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jonoomph/openshot-edge 
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak
sudo apt-get install xbmc
sudo apt-get install openshot openshot-doc

but never really get the chance to do much movie editing with OpenShot.  Xmbc is an excellent movie 
player so i get it to use.  I still do get Mplayer and Vlc though because they are good for odd 
things, like playing stuff from phones if Xbmc refuses or makes it confusing.  Mainly i get Vlc and 
MPlayer because it forces a lot of codecs to be pulled in as dependencies.  There is a "Restricted 
Extras" page you can run through if you dont want so many players but it just makes things more 
complicated than just doing 

sudo apt-get install vlc mplayer
Regards from 
Tom :)
