Tried playing Spiderman 2 zipped trailer.  Codec conflict.
It appears someone has thoughtfully patched mplayer -  would anyone mind adding it to the ebuild?
1.0 pre1,2 and 0.92 versions available.

Reproducible: Always

Try downloading the zip from:

Actual Results:  
no movie :(

Expected Results:  
Played it.

Yep, this is very much needed. There are patches available, so it shouldn't be too hard.

A ready-to-go ebuild would even be nicer.

Works in 1.0_pre4-r4.  Looks like upstream already took the patching incentive.  I quickly found this out when the patches were failing because.. what do you know, the code was already there :).
