xmms sndfile is an input plugin for XMMS.

Using xmms_sndfile extends the capabilities of XMMS to open and play any file which can be opened and read by libsndfile, including WAV, AIFF, AU, and SVX files and many compressed version of these file formats.

Requirements:
XMMS
libsndfile

Installation:

It is assumed that you already have XMMS installed. If you are using one of the RPM based distributions like Redhat or Mandrake, you will also need to install the XMMS development package which will be named something like xmms-devel-*.rpm.

The first step is to install libsndfile using the INSTALL directions in the libsndfile tarball. After installing libsndfile, you will need to run ldconfig to set it up so that it can be used by other programs.

Finally you can install xmms_sndfile in a similar manner to libsndfile. Once that is done, run XMMS. In the preferences dialog box of you should see libxmms_sndfile listed with the input plugins.
