    You might not need to install anything. VLC seems to have its own 
codecs built in. It runs pretty well everything without assistance.

    It's my viewer of choice. Does a lot more than just view videos 
also...   converts formats; streams; captures; makes coffee; cooks 
doughnuts; etc.
(Ok, I may have made up one or two).

See ya
Ken
