Actually , Xtheater , libaviplay(that I think is equivalent to libavifiles)
xtheater that are the dll codecs that are on the site are in the current
contrib CD .
I think is not got got it running on the two first cd is better .
is not a simple copy but you have also to tell it what terminaison use
wat codec this mean you must do an utilities for people begining using it.
for a moyen person it will be t hard to get it running.
