Do you still have the problem?  If yes, then (assuming you installed
w32codecs correctly, and you're using Totem with Xine back-end) do the
following:

      * Make sure that you quit totem.
      * Make a backup of "~/.xine/catalog.cache". After that edit it and
        find the following lines:

        [/usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.0.0/xineplug_decode_w32dll.so]
        size=173768
        mtime=1112804124
        type=131
        api=15
        id=win32a
        version=10000
        supported_types=50593792 52428800 52822016 ... (long line
        truncated)
        decoder_priority=1

      * Change "decoder_priority=1" to "decoder_priority=7"

Save the file and try Totem.

(I'm sorry for the late, I didn't even noticed your mail until recently
while rearranging my Inbox.)
