Hi there
that depends, there's a chance that the codec isn't even supported under linux, 
what you could do for now is try to identify the codec used by the movie and 
report this including the information obtained to a codec related project such 
as ffmpeg. You could try to obtain the information about this particular video 
file with the following command:

mplayer -identify -frames 0 -vc null -vo null -ao null my_video_file.avi
| grep ^ID

obviously changing "my_video_file.avi" with the filename of your movie.

the output of the following command could also help since maybe you're
just missing the required codecs:

dpkg -l | grep gstreamer0.10 | awk '{print $2,$3}'

anyhow this isn't a totem bug, so i'm leaving it out of this report.

Thanks in advance.

** Changed in: ubuntu
Sourcepackagename: totem => None
