I am  sorry, but I am quite ignorant in such matters and I just tend to
stumble from one thing to another. All I can tell you is that I have
installed all the bits and pieces one needs to hear sounds and watch
videos etc from as many sources as possible. There is a very helpful
page but I have not got the reference but Google will probably help.
