12 Hmmmm,
13
14 So, I cannot use wind32codecs with *any* non-binary video program on
15 amd64, like vlc or mplayer.
16
17 But I can used
18 media-libs/win32codecs
19 with a binary, such as
20 mplayer-bin....
21
22 So can I use win32codecs with:
23 seamonkey-bin ?
24 mozilla-firefox-bin ?
25 quake4-bin ?
26
27
28 How would one know which binary based multimedia/video/games packages work with
29 win32codecs?
