Works for me. It's wdmc format, you need the binary quicktim codecs.

You will most probably have to compile again. MPlayer of course will not
compile in binary codecs support if you don't have any binary codecs on
you PC...
Use the --enable-qtx and --with-codecsdir options to make sure next
time...
