Enabling sound

[Jean Hollis Weber]

Daniel Carrera told me how to install the following:

> w32codecs
> libdvdcss2
> libxine-extracodecs
> flashplugin-nonfree
> sun-java5-plugin

Thanks! I've now installed all of those. (Turned out I already 
had the flash-plugin.)

Now to test the .wmv again. Hmm, the Totem movie player gives me 
the same error message as before:

"You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You 
might need to install the necessary plugins."

BTW, I had previously installed the VLC media player, to play 
.ogg files, which it does just fine, both sound and video. VLC 
gives me the audio from .wmv, but no video.

What else do I need to do to play both sound and video from a 
.wmv? Thanks for any help anyone can give me. (I am abysmally 
ignorant of anything to do with audio and video files, so if I 
ask wrong or stupid questions, that's why.)

Cheers, Jean
