this is the wrong mailing list for such questions
this list is for patches/development only.

grab mplayer.exe without a frontend from :
MPlayer SVN Windows alternative builds	HTTP
on the download page.

or just get c:\program files\smplayer\mplayer\mplayer.exe from the
installed smplayer.

btw there are some java mplayer frontends on the related projects page,
if you want to steal any features from them :)
