you should be able to just do
mplayer /path/to/file.extension
mplayer can autodetect file types
also, you may just want to install gui if that is what you are looking for... in mplayer's source folder do
make clean
./configure --enable-gui
make
su
make install
exit
then extract a theme into
/usr/local/share/mplayer/Skin
you may need to symlink Skin to default in that directory
