Hi Sebastien, I found my answer, and it's not a bug, but a legal thing, because the required codecs are not allowed to be shipped with Ubuntu, from what I've read.
The bug reporting window popped up when I was trying to play a movie, and I was trying to help. I solved the problem by installing: 32codecs and libdvdcss2, from the Medibuntu web page. Thank you for your inquiry, and I hope this helps.
