Linux Mint is NOT the next version of Ubuntu. Whatever gave you that idea?

Michael, do you ever try to read the pages you go to or do a simple search to answer your own questions? Googling Mint 12 codecs gave the answer in both of the 1sr two results. and looking at the release notes for the Mint 12 you downloaded shows:

CD images

If you install Linux Mint from the CD, you're missing some applications and the multimedia codecs. You can install the missing applications by clicking on "Upgrade to the DVD edition" in the welcome screen or in "Menu->Administration". And you can install the missing codecs by clicking on "Install Multimedia Codecs" in the welcome screen or in "Menu->Sound and Video".
