Hello,

I have been out of the loop with the latest news on Fedora and open
source for sometime. Maybe a month ago, I lost the ability to create
MP3's. I though initially it was just affecting Rhythmbox but Sound
Juicer also can no longer save music in an MP3 format. I did some
light searching via google but have yet to find a solution. I scanned
the archives for the last few months but if anyone else is having
this issue then I have missed it. It was working one day then it
wasn't , I have the gstreamer plugins ugly and bad, ffmpeg. Anyway it
was working and I have not removed any packages, so I am not sure
what happened.

You're right, this is strange. It sounds like it could be a
permissions problem of some sort. The packages are there, they just
can't be accessed because something has changed the access rights.

Does sox or audacity work for converting to mp3?

Do you have lame and libmad installed? These are other libraries
that allow encoding and playing mp3s. I can't think about how they
could be the cause of your problem, just suggest them as a wild
possibility.
