This will play almost anything.
Multimedia Install for Dapper

sudo apt-get install totem-xine totem-xine-firefox-plugin libxine-extracodecs 
w32codecs libdvdcss2 flashplugin-nonfree sun-java5-plugin banshee streamtuner 
xmms skype msttcorefonts realplay f-spot

Note the above three lines are one continuous line; ie, the only "Enter" is at 
the very end.

It's not original by me, but I forgot where I came across it several months 
ago.  All I know is it works very well with Dapper and makes me a happy 
camper!
