Hey all,
by following the advice at the very last post here:
http://amarok.kde.org/forum/index.php/topic,15438.0.html
I was able to fix the problem!
As always, it's a simple stupid little thing...
Thanks to all that helped!

I found out another interesting thing:--
If I open the Run Command window and enter: 'kdesudo amarok' and enter the
password, Amarok opens as root (different colors and all) and the MP3 files
are playable...
it seems to be a permissions issue - so how do I fix this?
I guess chmoding the /usr/bin/amarokapp to my user, isn't such a good
idea...
Help!

Following your instruction, I entered 'xine' to the find box and this is
what it found, regarding February:
Commit Log for Fri Feb 27 10:48:41 2009
Installed the following packages:
libxine1-all-plugins (1.1.11.1-1ubuntu3.2)

libxine1-plugins (1.1.11.1-1ubuntu3.2)
xine-ui (0.99.5+cvs20070914-2)
I have re-installed these packages after purging them as part of the
debugging process. My last major upgrade happened on Thu Jul 17 22:42:56
2008, and was able to play MP3 files since then...
In between I have installed the Fluendo Streaming Server package. I think
that's what messed things up for me...
Any other ideas?
Thanks!

Hello,update
I used to be able to play MP3 files with Amarok, but after a recent
it stopped working!opening
I am running Amarok 1.4.9.1on KDE 3.5.10.
When I try to add an MP3 song to the playlist the first time after
Amarok, it asks me if I want to install MP3 support for Amarok. I clickon
the 'install MP3 support' button, but nothing happens. When I re-try toadd
the file, it pops up a message saying the file was not added becausethe
media is not playable....
Please help!
No idea why yours might not be working, but I am playing an mp3 right
now on Amarok on my Gnome (Hardy) desktop. From Help|About Amarok:
'Amarok 1.4.9.1 (Using KDE 3.5.10)'. And this is following the slew of
kde security updates that were installed recently:
