totem: problem loading decoder wmvdmod.dll

[bren]

hi!

my system is a dapper drake kubuntu. i've been using totem-xine as a movie player for a long time now, and have win32codecs from the start. i have been able to play wmv files successfully before, but today i downloaded some wmv files and i couldn't play them. totem is complaining about some problem loading a library or decoder (wmvdmod.dll). same thing with kaffeine, it plays the sound but no video, and also complains about wmvdmod.dll. i tried playing the file in my friend's ubuntu system and it played just fine. i wonder what went wrong with my system. and btw, i could still play my old wmv files...

somebody knowledgeable about this please help me. thanks!

btw, this is the exact error message as seen in console:
