Hi Adel

First, please try not to top post on this mailing list - I'm told it can
mess up the way threads are handled.

Second, I am not an expert on this - I just know some quick fixes.  So I
Googled for 'mpeg aac audio for Ubuntu'. There is a lot of stuff there.
Too much for me to go through, so I will have to leave you to look at it
and try and find the solution you need.

Tony
