Unfortunately, ubuntu maintainers stick with what they find when looking
for a "release", which does not make very much sense with mplayer.

Just from that line you'll see that version is two years old. There are
surely a million bugs fixed since then.

It's not too hard to compile mplayer, give it a try. If the video still
doesn't play (which I dare to doubt), please come back an someone will try
to help you.
