When I try to play wmv files with mplayer I get distorted green (sometimes black) screen. Timer stops at 5 seconds and won't move.

I get this in console:

Code:

overflow in spectral RLE, ignoring 0.006   7/  7 ??% ??% ??,?% 0 0
overflow in spectral RLE, ignoring

I have:

Seems like you have got an WMV file with DRM protection, for which you need a special licence.
I also had many similar cases. :?
