[ SOLVED ] Burning MP3 to CD with xfburn

[pingball57]

Thanks. None of the additional plugins mentioned had any effect. I've installed Brasero from synaptic (install/remove software) which has done the job nicely. Thanks all.

In the main Forum, Search for 'how to use xfburn' The second result appears to be a solution using the first post.

installed restricted extras as well as 'the good the bad & the ugly' gstream plugins as suggested by xfburn. i now get this dialogue box: Gstreamer did not like this file (detection timed out). The file is a ripped commercial music CD. It has a scratch that is causing a prob. in my CD player but has ripped to MP3 Ok. could this be the fly in the soup?

Try installing Restricted Extras from Lite Software. See if that helps.

I've just read a thread in software support saying you can burn MP3's to a normal audio CD using xfburn. I've just tried this but got the message -

(filename}.mp3

is not an audio file:

MPEG-1 Layer 3 (MP3) decoder is missing.

You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file.
Probably you need to look at the gst-plugins-* packages
for the necessary plugin

 I've looked in synaptic manager but coudn't find anything that looked suitable. What plugins do i need to install?.or am i doing something else wrong? Thanks.
