You might also try
  wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks
  sh winetricks wmp10

It might register the codecs better, who knows.  (And clean out your .wine
first, it's always better to start clean when trying to figure things out,
even though it means reinstalling apps.)

That's "WMVideo_Decoder_DMO", part of quartz.dll.

Good luck!
