libpng.so.2 needed

Hey,
Im trying to install mplayer in my FC4 system, but on giving the RPM commands, I get an error "libpng.so.2 is required". Where do I download this file from?

Also, if you can suggest any other player capable of playing DivX movies, it'd be great. When I used mplayer on my old FC1 system, it used to crash quite a bit...
Thanks dudes

Download this library and install it: download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/x86_64/os/Fedora/RPMS/libpng10-1.0.18-2.i386.rpm
Also, for divx you can use xine, vlc and a lot of other players (search google)
