Usually, when I'm watching a video I'm using SMPlayer (a lot of people are using VLC), which is an application based on the famous video player MPlayer. If MPlayer is broken also SMPlayer will not work at all.
Some days ago I really don't know what happened but MPlayer didn't work anymore, it was giving me an error something like this:
/usr/bin/mplayer: symbol lookup error: /usr/bin/mplayer: undefined symbol: codec_wav_tags
If you have the same error you can try to reinstall the program. For me the installation from the Synaptic Package Manager didn't resolved my problem and because of this I've installed from an other repository. If you have the same problem you could try the steps below. If you never installed MPlayer or SMPlayer you also can do the same steps.
