It has been quite a while since I set these up and I am certain that I probably had to add an installation of codecs to the mix, probably from the Mplayer site. In any case all 3 seem to play it. MPlayer DOES however complain with a popup dialog box complaining about missing a DLL for DVD playback, it still played the file. This was with a file on my drive, not one embedded in an email.
