There is a website that streams local TV and it requires windows media player plugin. I have LUbuntu freshly installed, but it simply says "Missing Plug-in". It doesn't say anything about what packages I need to install. What's the right package/s to install?

Rhythmbox is not a canonical product so I don't think canonical can do anything about it. If you need a feature may be you can request feature to rhythmbox developers. If you are talking about third party plugin called 10 Band Equalizer.
What you can do is create a folder called plugins
in $HOME/.local/share/rhythmbox
and download the plugin and extract the equalizer folder in the plugins
folder you created.
OR
If you know how to use git
and have git
installed. Just goto $HOME/.local/share/rhythmbox
and do:
git clone https://github.com/luqmana/rhythmbox-plugins.git plugins
and then you can update your plugin with git pull
command from plugins
directory
Then enable the plugin from rhythmbox.
It can also be installed via a PPA as described in the linked question.

This plugin is written for Python 2, but since gedit 3.8, only Python 3 plugins are supported. So some small changes are required.
Modify the installer (
gedit-markdown.sh
) to install the python3 markdown module:This is a patch that you can apply on the existing file (or you can just copy the full modified version available here):

You should see python 3.4 instead of 2.7:

Change the plugin loader to python3
Replace
/home/aarold/.local/share/gedit/plugins/markdown-preview.plugin
with:[Plugin] Loader=python3 Module=markdown-preview IAge=3 Name=Markdown Preview Name[fr]=Aperçu Markdown Description=Show the HTML version of the Markdown text you're editing Description[fr]=Affiche l'aperçu en HTML du document Markdown en cours d'édition Authors=Michele Campeotto <micampe@micampe.it>\nJean-Philippe Fleury <contact@jpfleury.net> Copyright=Copyright © 2005, 2006 Michele Campeotto\nCopyright © 2009, 2011-2012 Jean-Philippe Fleury Website=http://www.jpfleury.net/logiciels/gedit-markdown.php
Convert
/home/aarold/.local/share/gedit/plugins/markdown-preview/__init__.py
to python3:Run:
2to3 -w /home/aarold/.local/share/gedit/plugins/markdown-preview/__init__.py
Finally open this file and edit line 86 (remove the binary mode,
"wb"
->"w"
):with open(confFile, "w") as confFile:
Activate the plugin in Gedit as you did.

Ok I've got it working now. I have removed the packages from Medibuntu PPA (since I don't require its packages yet) and installed these packages:
totem-mozilla
gstreamer0.10-alsa
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3
gstreamer0.10-nice
gstreamer0.10-pitfdll
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse
gstreamer0.10-plugins-base
gstreamer0.10-plugins-base-apps
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse
gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio
gstreamer0.10-tools
gstreamer0.10-x
flashplugin-installer
These are taken from the package list from my previous Ubuntu (thanks to dv3500ea for the clues). I am not sure if there are any packages that are safe to remove. I forgot the forum thread in which I followed the guide. I also have VLC plugin (mozilla-plugin-vlc) installed but it's not necessary to play the video. I still have it enabled and the video is playing.
