Mint 15 is Ubuntu 13.04/Raring based and can use all the Raring repos
including the ones for Trinity. Trinity installed and runs fine on Mint 15.
I just checked in synaptic that all the packages on your list are available,
including wine 1.4.1. I got best results from starting with the Mate DE
version of Mint 15 and leaving most of Mate/Gnome installed. The result
is fully up to date on media and sound support with Firefox 20.0.
Another good option might be Ubuntu Studio 12.04 with Trinity
installed. I haven't
tried this yet, but it'll be the next thing I do. Trinity works fine
on standard 12.04
but I'm missing something needed to make the sound work. 12.04 uses wine 1.4,
and so far that's been as good as wine 1.4.1.

I'm considering switching distros because of the
frequent problems
with software suddenly not working, luckily I don't have many apps
to worry over.
My 5 major concerns are:
1. Kaffeine (the 0.8 version that actually worked)
2. Audacity
3. AVI Demux (the old version that worked correctly)
4. WINE (1.4.1 worked with my programs)
5. Amarok
Thnx for the update.

Is it possible to run all modern
software/hardware under Hardy 8.04?
(IE, widescreen monitors, firefox, mkv files, etc?)
It will do widescreen monitors, but that will also be dependent on your
video card. With my Rage 128 Pro card the Acer 19" Widescreen (1366 x 768)
says it's doing that, but according to the xorg log it's doing 1280 x 768,
but that's about as good as it will get for a 1366 x 768 monitor.
Firefox is stuck at 3.6.17
Opera won't get further than 12.02 due to the version of libc6.
And as Lisi says there are newer versions of apps that won't work on it
due to needing newer library versions.
I must say that I also have Xubuntu Lucid 10.04 installed with TDE 3.5.13.2
which works fine, and also Xubuntu Precise 12.04 with TDE 3.5.13.2
