I just installed 12.04 LTS in my machine, and when I use movie player, it only plays the sound and shows no video.

The file I've been trying to play is mp4. I installed ffmpeg from the terminal if it has anything to do with the problem.

Hope someone can help me, once I liked Ubuntu. I had OpenSuse11.4 KDE installed before and it played videos without problems.

Do you have the ubuntu-restricted-extra package installed? – Alex L. Aug 10 '12 at 0:20
