How to play .wma files in Amarok

Asked by Peet

Hi, I need to play .wma files, as I have quite a few tracks in this format, how can I do this?, or must I re code them to WAV?
I am surprised not to find this question in a forum search!
Running:
Kubuntu 7.04, AMD64,
KDE 3.5.6
Amarok 1.4.7
Thanks in advance!

You need to Install the required codecs(as these are restricted formats).. Please see:
