Oh, and there's a screencast too, although I do question the usefulness 
of a video on how to watch videos. ;)

This screencast comprehensively details how to play media (movies and 
DVDs) in Ubuntu. In this screencast we cover:-

     * Playing DVDs
     * Adding codecs automatically
     * Playing video embedded in a browser
     * Installing Flash Player plugin
     * Installing Miro video platform
