mplayer for AMD64 and its decoders on Ubuntu 7.10

I think configuring totem or xine or kaffeine is too sophisticated. So I still prefer using mplayer, just two steps to deploy, installing the binary executables and copy the decoders to proper place.

Step 1: install binary executables
           sudo apt-get install mplayer
Step 2: Add Medibuntu into your source repository and install w64codecs
sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/gutsy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
wget -q http://packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install non-free-codecs
Done.
