I've been playing MP3's on FreeBSD for almost as long as I can remember. * What type of system are you running? * What are you using for a sound card/driver? * Which MP3 players have you tried? * Are you accessing the MP3's from a local system or NFS? * Did it work with 3.X? A little more information might be helpful. - Jim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
