Currently my mplayer gives the same error as described in this bug:

But since ffmpeg in jaunty is new, ffmpeg is actually fixed. But I still can't play the file in mplayer, because it's old and isn't linked against the new ffmpeg.

I realize linking against ffmpeg shared libs is problematic because they break API/ABI compatibility often. But having to convert the H264/AAC flv file to another container is quite ridiculous.
