Did you install gtk-devel?

you need the devel versions of both also which mplayer version are you trying to install and check the needet glib and gtk versions and the installed ones on your system maybe you need a update

The GUI needs GTK 1.2.x, I don't think they are backward compatible.
But you cann install both (I've got both installed and mplayer uses the 1.2.x version).
Get it from: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk

I have it installed, but cannot remember if I needed it for mplayer
