I don't know anything about live555, but if development files are properly
installed, ./configure usually detects them and enables the corresponding
features. --enable-* is usually an easy way to make mplayer NOT compile.

My humble approach if I try to use some feature is to guess and install
one development package after another until ./configure automatically
enables what I want.

This seems to be safer than to use the very unrecommended --enable-*
switches.
