[Bug 781980] Re: I can't watch .wmv videos

[madbiologist]

Try opening the Ubuntu Software Centre, then select "Software
Sources..." from the Edit menu.  Enter your password, then select
universe, restricted and multiverse (main should already be selected).
Click Close, and if necessary enter your password again. If prompted to
reload the package information/query the archive, do so.

Then try to play the .wmv file again.
