First thing I see you have Ubuntu Gutsy as your O/S it does not support mp3 without adding codecs, Ultimate Edition supports mp3s "out of the box". You will need to add add your repos restricted etc.

Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly


You may also need w32codecs you can obtain them from mediabuntus site
