Ok... Open - Rhythmbox
go to - Library... highlight Music...right click mouse...import mp3 file.
window pop up... Install Multimedia Plugins... seaches...
ID3 tag demuxer
Error... No packages with the requested plugins found...
ID3 tag demuxer.... OK
This then reverted to Rhythmbox and produced not imported mp3 files.

Also tried import folder with no resulting import

I'm not sure if this will help...
Also I make these mp3 file using Ripper X.. another Ubuntu app.

Have tried this on on both my Ubuntu loaded PC's ie Laptop and Desktop...
By the way the desktop has sound working OK... but my laptop has problems with recognising sound card...
I guess this might be another bug.
Regards... David

I've now established that the MP3 file ripped using Ripper X do not work so I guess these are not GOOD MP3 files.
Using other MP3 files Rhythmbox works OK.
The problem is with Ripper X and it's production of MP3 music files.!!!
I still have a problem with my laptop sound card recognition... it works OK in MS Windows, but not with Unbuntu 9.10..
Any Ideas...??? please
Regards Dave

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version.Thanks in advance.
