Sorry bout that, Robin - I've had indifferent success with mplayer
and the codecs, but I have gotten them to work. The results can be
a bit frustrating because they don't always work - suppose it's
version dependent or something. I've always done it in conjunction
with Kaffeine, but that's not the only way, according to what I've
read.
