Mplayer for Linux

I tried to install latest rpm of mplayer 1.0pre5.2.
I got "failed dependencies 2:1.0pre5 needed".

I downloaded 1.0pre5, compiled and installed it(it works fine except quicktime video's have no sound). I then tried to install rpm again-got same messages.

Did I miss something?

rpms suck, just compile mplayer yourself.

Novell deliberately crippled parts of it so they couldnt get in trouble when people installed restricted codecs etc...

So the list so far:
Novell
Xandros
Linspire
TurboLinux

If Redhat succumbs, we're really screwed.
