Hello --

You may have arrived at debiantutorials.org after searching for "w32codecs Debian" on Google. In order to assist you as conveniently as possible here's all you need to know, step by step:

• open a terminal
• become root (su)
• # gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
• add the marillat repos:

   #codecs
  deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ sarge main
  #deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ etch main
  #deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ sid main  

• save and close the file in Gedit
• # apt-get update
• # apt-get install w32codecs

You may want to add Marillat's key to your ring so apt-get stops showing you an error. In your terminal as root issue the following commands:

# gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 07DC563D1F41B907
# gpg --export | apt-key add -

Enjoy Debian and all that comes with it.
