VLC audio message: vdpau_avcodec generic error: decoder profile not
supported: 7
I have also tried playing the video with mpv which gives a different error
[lavf] Edit lists are not correctly supported (FFmpeg issue)
My system is Stretch. ogg123 plays ogg files with not problem but I just
checked and found mpg321 plays mp3 files with no sound.
Any suggestions as to what is missing? How to fix this?

Sb. in this forum was advised to use mplayer.
So I purged vlc, used deborphan to get rid of it's fringe benefits, and
as a layman in video and sound, installed mplayer AND smplayer.
After fiddling a little within smplayer's menu, I could enjoy a film DVD,
