I'm sorry readanysf~ is somewhat difficult to install.
Actually, compiling [readanysf~] is dead-easy. It's only it's dependencies, that can be tricky. However, if you _know_ that you need to first install some libraries for compiling gmerlin-avdecoder, then this is easy as well.
the problem here is that I'm still on jaunty. gmerlin only appeared some
months ago for karmic. unfortunately I'm not very experienced in compiling
and can't code (and don't really want to learn any of those). so I can't
offer any specialized help.
I'm also a windows user, so a windows version would be great. specially because, for whatever reason, pd is quite weak in terms of file players. even mp3play~ doesn't work with any of my mp3.
