Thread:Extension talk:TimedMediaHandler/Missing or misplaced files/reply (2)

Can you provide a detailed, simplified walkthrough on how to get Pear installed and configured properly so the TimedMediaHandler extension functions correctly? I have read a ton of info and instructions, and I am still at a loss on what to do. My media extension refuses to work. All I need to do is get the embed player to appear inside the Template:Listen box.
