Here you can get the codecs:

http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/dload.html

"all in one package" will do just fine. Uncompress that package, then make a directory at:

/usr/local/lib/codecs

and move all of the uncompressed files there. It's very important to do this before compiling mplayer, otherwise the codecs won't be found by mplayer

.
When done, recompile mplayer.

Good luck!
