Unable to play movies at all

You need to install codecs.

Either you install vlc, this will intern download all codecs or install Ubuntu restricted extras from software center.

    I just installed Ubuntu, and thus I'm unable to play movies. For example, if I run *.mkv file, I get the error of " Gstreamer backend error - Can't play the text file without video or visualization". If I run *.avi one, it says " Gstreamer backend error -Your Gstream installation is missing a plugin"

    What should I install?
