I recieved a Video that says it's a .wmv file but Linux Properties says it is a ASF format. I have tried to play it with VLC, Xine, Mplayer but there is a codec problem. They all play the Audio of the file but not the Video.
Using Mplayer, I get this error message. The playback of this movie requires a video/x-asf-unknown decoder plugin which is not installed.

ASF is the "container" and almost every wmv and wma is indeed an asf file. Since an ASF file may contain audio, video or both, these alternate (file- extension) naming conventions have appeared (wma for audio; and wmv for video).

Ok, so it seems you have just the codec for windows media audio but not for wmv... For issues like this I use a nice tool called "mediainfo" that will tell you all the characteristics of the video file. Check it out:
http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/
There's an rpm for Fedora...

Did you install the codecs tarball from the MPlayer site? Check this guide:

I think that's what you are missing.
