I would love to help you, but I don't personally have the solution. I
can tell you what to ask for thou. What you need is a cd or dvd with
more software on there are several ways to do this - but I've never
personally tried them. I suggest you write a new email with a subject
line like 'installing software offline - how?' and mention your problem
in that email. Then some people can help you.

Once you've worked out how to make a cd/dvd for your home computer
you'll need to make sure you have the correct software to solve your
problem. I suggest you try the vlc media player and all the packages
(files) it uses. That should fix the problem. If you live in the USA or
Japan you may be breaking patenting laws by installing vlc.
