Comment(by HoboPrimate):

 Not necessarily. If codecs aren't found, jukebox should inform the user
 which ones are missing. It would be up to the user to install them,
 manually or more tipically using their distro instructions. In Fedora this
 is done by adding rpmfusion repository and installing the necessary
 gstreamer packages, in ubuntu you enable the multiverse repo.

 Also, in Fedora 17 and having Gnome installed, I was asked if I wanted to
 search and download for missing codecs (from the repos) when I viewed
 http://sugarlabs.org/index.php?template=gallery&page=media_01 in Browse
 (at the end it failed to install but that's for another ticket). If I
 remember correctly, Ubuntu also has this (it is perhaps a gstreamer
 thing).
