These packages will add MP3, Quicktime, Windows Media, Flash support, and a whole lot of codec support which virtually will result in you being able to play almost anything under the sun! :)
So, this is how you install the pack (you can use any one):
1. Terminal method
Open the terminal and type the following:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
2. Synaptic method
Open the Synaptic package manager (Ubuntu Main Menu > System > Administration > Synaptic package manager) and search with the following words: "ubuntu-restricted-extras". Install the package which appears in the search result with the same name. After installation the package should look like the pic below.
Mind you, there are legal restrictions for these packages in some countries. (Go through this link for more on Ubuntu Licensing : Licensing)
