I wish the same was true of Ubuntu Intrepid.

Hmmm, the decoder is there in Ubuntu, but it looks like an older version. You could download the source package from Debian and try building it. (Try version 0.8.2-1 from Debian Unstable).

I'll just wait to see if the problems with Adobe's version is ever solved on Intrepid. I assume I'll get sick of this and try again.

Thanks for the advice.
