Okay - I ran the following from the command line:
mplayer /home/harmony/.opera/download/Ginger2CANSm.mov
Ginger2CANSm.mov is a short quicktime movie. A small window is opened which is filled with a light blue that would be calming in other circumstances. Audio is heard fine. The window closes at the end of the movie (at least as far as can be told from the audio track).
The same occurs with other quicktime movies, mpegs etc.
I'm guessing because the audio is fine and because the same applies to other formats, that it's to do with the output of mplayer rather than trouble decoding the file itself. As far as I understand the output (not that far) mplayer thinks it's doing its job.
Watching movies is the last thing I still have to use Windows for. If you can show me how to get this working then I'm free.
The output from mplayer (minus the second to second changing numbers)follows:
