This problems depends on 2 conditions:
1st : You media player version, better to be 9 or 10 and some movie need codecs [Like DivX movies' codecs] to be played .
2nd : You are streaming a movie . . . that will need a faster connection, I think dial up will be useless to stream videos online.

I'd make sure I have Adobe Flashplayer installed. A lot of times, this will fix it.

Is your firewall preventing the content from coming across?

Sometimes depending on your style of computer you have to add in a plug in
