Support for multimedia like that is dangerous because of patent issues
(you'll soon learn why it is that we all hate the commercial software
vendors), so it's often difficult to find "codecs" -- they don't officially
exist. Go download/compile/install MPlayer though and all of your movies will
work -- unofficially.
