It seems that you are trying to run a windows application in Ubuntu for that you have to first install wine and then try running the setup file directly from your media.

You can install Wine, and then install your software true it.
But I don't think video editing on Ubuntu via Wine is a good idea...

There are a bunch of native programs for Ubuntu that surely will work better that "ArcSoft Showbiz" via Wine.
