Re: Real player theme for Noatun?

Hi

In fact noatun is just a GUI for ARTS. ARTS is KDE's multimedia server. So, if ARTS can play a file, noatun can and vice-versa. IIRC, ARTS uses a plugin system to read different file formats. On my machine, ARTS can play WAV, OGG, MP3 as well as MPG, ASF, AVI, DIVX etc... If you want to read the latest video formats (DIVX, ASF etc...), you have to install the "xine-arts" plugin which enables ARTS to play every file that Xine (the video player) can read. So, if ARTS can play them, then Noatun (and kaboodle and any ARTS-enabled application) can read it.

I hope that was clear enough.
