No idea what _exactly_ you want (since I simply can't see any point in
it, why do you want to ship a "broken" MPlayer version to your users??).
Of course in mplayer.c in the main function you can just add
if (!slave_mode)
  return 1;
and MPlayer will simply quit unless -slave is given on the command line.

No. Well, somebody did it apparently but I do not know who, and I do
know it was quite a hack and likely to cause problems.
Using MPlayer as a DLL would also mean that your application will have to be
under the GPL...
