I don't know exactly, but > I look forward to replies, many thanks It's probably an error in configuring the mp3 player. EMMS doesn't play itself, it forks another command to play the mp3. Here is what I have in my ~/.emacs (when (require 'emms-setup nil t) (require 'emms-player-simple) (require 'emms-source-file) (require 'emms-source-playlist) (emms-standard) (emms-default-players) ; do you have this line in your ~/.emacs ? (defalias 'np 'emms-show)) and it works ok, I've got mplayer in the PATH. -- __Pascal Bourguignon__
