Thank you for taking the time to submit your bug. Everyone's input is important to the continuing development of Ubuntu. The link below is a very good "Comprehensive Multimedia & Video Howto"

See: Part 1/5 Essential Packages: for a quick and easy way to install most of the packages you need (Flash, Java, codecs for playing/ripping/converting music and video etc)

This is not a bug, it's a support request.
Closing.
