A friend of mine is a Red Hat employee and he said they do not support 
MP4 and that is why he uses xmms (as I remember) and not Amarok.
That is a shame!  I guess also because Fedora/Red Hat use gnome and not 
KDE.  Amarok seems to work well in SuSE 10.3 Alpha 5.  However, xine is 
crippled by SuSE for legal reasons.  You need to compile xine-lib and 
have all of the sound stuff from the CD/DVD.  To play a DVD you will 
need libdvdcss also.

Amarok is the best streaming and file.mp3 player I have run across.
