Reinstall of the codec manually using this solution did the trick! Thanks - you are a lifesaver!

Thanks. This worked for me too in (L)Ubuntu 11.04
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libavcodec-extra*
for Ubuntu 11.10
great solution. It worked perfectly on the first try!
Sweet thanks this was very helpful and worked well!
using 10.10
I am unable to check that link. But got the app "winff" working since page 2 was informative on what needs to be installed.
I am including a screenshot of the error.
Ubuntu no longer uses FFmpeg, and the forum policy changed which required me to gain permission from a moderator every time I wanted to update my own post. These changes were unacceptable to me, so I deleted it to prevent it from rotting and becoming outdated or wrong. The guide basically said to install the libavcodec-extra-5* package to enable additional encoders, or the same named package from Medibuntu if you need ffmpeg to support the AAC encoder named libfaac.
For Precise, install libavcodec-extra-53; looks like an update to the package, but this fix works perfectly.
GREAT !!!! :popcorn: :P
yeah, libavcodec-extra-52 .... :guitar:
you save me ...
