Just in case somebody else want to make one of these breast work. |
| 73 |

Using movie players, Kaffeine and VLC they work, but it seems like |
| 75 |
every movie has to be adjusted to fully fit the 37" lcd screen. More |
| 76 |
works is needed on that. |
| 77 |
|

Now to get voice controls working, I'll never have to leave my chair again! |
