Hi,

Installed kodi. It will play all my music that is mp3 or flac but not m4a with aac. This is also true with films. I tested the music with clementine and it played m4a. Tested with audacious and it played all the music except m4a. I believe I do not have the correct libraries installed. Thanks.

Next time use the search function before posting, this is just asked too often, if you simply search for aac you will find nearly one hundred hits. Just a short excerpt:

At the very least please provide the output of

Hi,

Checked some of those posts and here is the output from urpmq --list-media active .

You have a few tainted packages installed, but no tainted repos enabled? Also you still have the DVD repos from the install media enabled, if you have a fast internet connection I'd recommend disabling them.
Please enable Tainted Release and Tainted Updates, and then run

Code: Select all

urpmi --auto-update

as root to get the tainted versions where possible, should also get the kodi version from tainted.
For how to manage repos, see http://doc.mageia.org/mcc/5/en/content/ ... media.html and maybe https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Software_man ... nd_updates

Thanks. That fixed the problem.
