Trouble? Contact listmaster@lists.debian.org > I personally prefer mplayer, which can be downloaded from: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/ I believe it is debian friendly, just have to debuild it. You'll want to install codecs first though so they get compiled in. Grab the win32 codecs file from the mplayer download page to play pretty much all the microsoft video formats. I downloaded divx from this site: http://avifile.sourceforge.net/download.htm you'll want divx4linux off of that site, there is a divx5 download there. You can also compile in DVD support and many others. You can find complete documentation of what files you need for all of that at http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS Also if anything I suggested here doesn't work, check the DOCS page for more detailed intructions.
