I've done a fresh install from a live cd of Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop i386 connected to the internet.

After, I opened terminal and I typed "sudo apt-get update" "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" without any changes to Software Sources. So, I restarted Ubuntu and I installed mplayer-gui via Ubuntu Software Center.

After, I downloaded this file: http://blip.tv/file/get/Llelectronics-LubuntuScreencastLXPanel2PanelConfiguration964.webm . So, I opened mplayer-gui and I played the file. Mplayer has freezed with vdpau and xv drivers. Video has played ok only with x11 driver.

I would like to remember that Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS works great. Is there any way to use video drivers from 8.04.4 LTS in 12.04 LTS ? Is there any other solution that I could try, even a difficult solution ?
