I did install using Marillat's package and once having done that downloaded the codecs from mplayerhq.hu site and unzipped them to the appropriate folder as per: http://mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/install.html#id2835200
I think that the mplayer packages were compiled and packaged with support for the win32 codecs and you just have to place the codecs in the right folder to get it to work. If I am mistaken, I apologize. ganesh
