Make sure you compiled with libavcodec (RTFM the README) and that you
don't have an old codecs.conf file lying around (it's obsolete). Then
it should work fine. And next time show us the full MPlayer output
from trying to play a file that doesn't work, since that would have
told us exactly what your problem was.
