You can install Mplayer. There are binary packages, google for it. MPlayer plays more codecs than VLC.

You can also compile VLC player, by using "spec-files" - but that is much more work and more difficult. Google for "spec-files" if you want to try it.

Forgot: MPlayer has no GUI. To get GUI, you need to run "gmplayer"
