I got this message:

"

Here's the sample. Download "Ticker" (104MB) No way to link directly to
the file, but this'll get you close... :
http://usa.bmwfilms.com/clap.asp?template=enhancedfilms&country=usa&film=

The film "Ticker" also has an alternate (commentary)
audio track that Mplayer seems to default to. Trying 
to switch to the other track while playing the movie 
crashes Mplayer. The main audio track can 
be selected with gmplayer -aid 4 /path_to/Ticker_EFE.mov
