some movies are broken with new mp3lib codecs in mplayer (ubuntu feisty)

If you read the changelog you will see that mp3lib audio codec is now enabled
Add --enable-mp3lib to CONFIGURE_AUDIO_CODECS (LP: #83580). - Remove --disable-mp3lib. This one took some time to find.

I will see if it works with the new update

Here is is how it was decoded in the past (with the big red warning)

Requested audio codec family [mp3] (afm=mp3lib) not available.
Enable it at compilation.
