Comment 3 for bug 62083

my architecture is i386

mplayer is Version: 2:0.99+1.0pre8-0ubuntu6
totem-xine is Version: 2.16.1-1ubuntu1

I've noticed that if I try to play the files from the command line in mplayer they work. If use them from the GUI they don't

here is the output of the command line when they work:
alberto@alberto-desktop:~/codec/codecnew$ mplayer /media/hdc5/alberto/Shared/"DragonBall Z - Movie 14 - History of Trunks.avi"
