[MPlayer-users] Error playing wmv files

[Wes Shaddix]

I've installed mplayer per the instructions at
http://fedoranews.org/mediawiki/index.php/Fedora_Core_4_Linux_Installation_Notes#MPlayer_-_another_multimedia_player: including the win32 codecs. When I try to play a wmv 9 movie I get the following errors. If anyone could help me to figure out what's wrong I would greatly appreciate it. I am a relatively new linux user, so please be overly verbose with your instructions :)

Thanks
