For offline installing, you can just download .deb files and then install them via this command :

sudo dpkg -i YOURPACKAGE.deb

And I guess that the ubuntu-restricted-extras and the ffmpeg packages are enough for playing mpeg4 and h264 codecs. So you can download them from this launchpad link and Ubunutu package link :

download ubuntu-restricted-extras package from here

(You should choose package depends on your operating system version and architecture for example I'm using Ubuntu 17.04 64bit , So I'm choosing ubuntu-restricted-extras_65_amd64.deb from The Zesty Zapus tab.)

download ffmpeg packages from here

And then you can install them with this commands (if .deb file has been downloaded to Downloads folder):

cd ~/Downloads
sudo dpkg -i ubuntu-restricted-extras_65_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i ffmpeg_packages.deb

(Also ffmpeg's depends must be installed.)
