    2.46 +<h3>SliTaz sound and video</h3>
    2.47 +<p>
    2.48 +SliTaz LiveCD mode provides sound support, but no video player, however you can watch YouTube by installing 
    2.49 +the <code>get-flash-plugin</code> package. To watch videos you can use Xine, it supports most formats such 
    2.50 +as avi, mov, mpeg etc, note Xine can also act as an audio player. At the sound level, you have a mixer 
    2.51 +(alsamixer) and audio player (alsaplayer), both installed by default on standard CD. SliTaz also provides 
    2.52 +tools to configure your sound card.
    2.53 +</p>
    2.54 +
    2.55 +<a name="config"></a>
    2.56 +<h3>Configure the sound card</h3>
    2.57 +<p>
    2.58 +In LiveCD mode SliTaz automatically configures the sound card by launching a dialog, in most cases the sound 
    2.59 +card is instantly recognized and you just press ENTER to continue to login and have your sound working. 
    2.60 +However, sometimes your card is not recognized at startup or simply not supported. Before throwing in the 
    2.61 +towel, you can try to manually configure your card by asking for help on the discussion list or on the 
    2.62 +hardware support forum.
    2.63 +</p>
    2.64 +<h4>Soundconf</h4>
    2.65 +<p>
    2.66 +To configure or reconfigure a sound card, SliTaz provides a script (<code>soundconf</code>), this utility 
    2.67 +is used at startup and doesn't pose any questions, supports the right modules and automatically configures 
    2.68 +<code>/etc/rsS.conf</code> so that the right driver is loaded on each start. Soundconf will also 
    2.69 +automatically adjust volume levels, you can change the settings later through the mixer and 
    2.70 +<code>alsactl</code>. To start the sound configuration interface, you must have administrator priviledges 
    2.71 +and type:
    2.72 +</p>
    2.73 +<pre>
    2.74 + # soundconf
    2.75 +</pre>
    2.76 +<h4>Alsactl</h4>
    2.77 +<p>
    2.78 +Alsactl controls <code>alsa</code> and can store settings or restore sound for example, to retain 
    2.79 +preferences for each start. When configuring sound with soundconf, volumes are automatically adjusted, you 
    2.80 +can use <code>alsamixer</code> as <em>root</em> to change the values and then launch <code>alsactl</code> 
    2.81 +to store the configuration:
    2.82 +</p>
    2.83 +<pre>
    2.84 + # alsactl store
    2.85 +</pre>
    2.86 +<p>
    2.87 +To restore the configuration, you can use the <code>alsactl restore</code> command or to restore your 
    2.88 +preferences at each startup you can edit /etc/init.d/local.sh with your favorite text editor or simply 
    2.89 +'echo' the changes:
    2.90 +</p>
    2.91 +<pre>
    2.92 + # echo 'alsactl restore' > /etc/init.d/local.sh
    2.93 +</pre>
    2.94 +
    2.95 +<a name="alsamixer"></a>
    2.96 +<h3>Alsamixer</h3>
    2.97 +<p>
    2.98 +Alsamixer is the official mixer of the Alsa project. It is simple and effective and can be run from the 
    2.99 +menu or directly from a terminal. The volumes can be regulated with the up/down arrows or muted using 
   2.100 +the <code>m</code> key. To start from a Linux terminal:
   2.101 +</p>
   2.102 +<pre>
   2.103 + $ alsamixer
   2.104 +</pre>
   2.105 +
   2.106 +<a name="alsaplayer"></a>
   2.107 +<h3>Alsaplayer</h3>
   2.108 +<p>
   2.109 +The audio player Alsaplayer is designed to be simple, clean and intuitive. Alsaplayer on SliTaz provides 
   2.110 +support for ogg, mp3 (via libmad) and wav files, playlists and viewers to accompany sound and the ability 
   2.111 +to adjust pitch and volume. Once launched from the menu just click the play button or load a playlist to 
   2.112 +start.
   2.113 +</p>
   2.114 +
   2.115 +<a name="asunder"></a>
   2.116 +<h3>Asunder -  Audio CD Ripper</h3>
   2.117 +<p>
   2.118 +Asunder retrieves and encodes audio tracks from a CD. The toolkit is simple and easy to use encoding 
   2.119 +songs into wav, ogg or mp3 (via <code>lame</code> package). It can search CDDB, create a playlist and 
   2.120 +edit file names. You will find Asunder in the Multimedia category on the menu.
   2.121 +</p>
   2.122 +
   2.123 +<a name="xine"></a>
   2.124 +<h3>Xine</h3>
   2.125 +<p>
   2.126 +Xine is a multimedia project providing various video viewers and audio players. SliTaz provides libraries 
   2.127 +and a media player contained in the package <code>xine-ui</code>. Xine uses a Xlib interface, a control 
   2.128 +panel, a right click configuration menu and various plugins. It can play ogg, mp3 and flac audio codecs 
   2.129 +and mov, avi or mpg video formats. To install xine and it's dependancies:
   2.130 +</p>
   2.131 +<pre>
   2.132 + # tazpkg get-install xine-ui
   2.133 +</pre>
   2.134 +<p>Official Xine <a href="http://xinehq.de/index.php/home">website</a>
   2.135 +</p>
   2.136 +
   2.137 +<a name="mpg123"></a>
   2.138 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">mpg123</font></h3>
   2.139 +<p>
   2.140 +Mpg123 is a command line audio player and file converter. This means that you can listen to music or 
   2.141 +convert files from a terminal, to display help (<code>--help</code>).
   2.142 +To play a mp3 file, just launch <code>mpg123</code> followed by the name of the audio file:
   2.143 +</p>
   2.144 +<pre>
   2.145 + $ mpg123 sound.mp3
   2.146 +</pre>
   2.147 +<p>
   2.148 +Mpg123 can also encode a file into another format, for example you can convert
   2.149 +a wav file into a mp3 file. Example:
   2.150 +</p>
   2.151 +<pre>
   2.152 + $ mpg123 -w sound.mp3 sound.wav 
   2.153 +</pre>
