There are lpd to cups support libraries that handle the old stuff.  It has
worked fine for me.

I wonder what you play?  mplayer is one of the few that does almost
everything for me.  The reason I removed the totem plug in is that it
interfears with the realaudio plugin.  (Which I need to listen to BBC
6music.)

Xine also works well for me.  (Especially for DVDs.)  I have yet to get
Totem to play anything correctly that is not a patent free codec.
