Ok well I'm 90% there.

In the gxine plugins folder there are a bunch of files I'd rather not go sorting around like crazy.
"gxineplugin.la jritypes.h Makefile.in npunix.lo plugin.c plugin.o
jri.h Makefile npapi.h npunix.o plugin.h
jri_md.h Makefile.am npunix.c npupp.h plugin.lo"

None of these is your average so plugin file so I'm a bit confused here.
And just from what I've tried on my own, it looks like it needs to be compiled so I tried a "make" command and nothing. Of course my complete knowledge here comes from what I know from other installiations so it's not that vast.

Disregard that
wrong topic

I am also running fc3 and I believe this post is gonna solve my problems i just have some questions. When I go to my /.mplayer directory there isn't a plugins folder there is only a couple files and nothing more so what i am wondering is is it possible that there is something seperate for the gmlayer part where the plugins folder may be? Or do i need create the plugins directory?

my mplayer works i was trying to install the mplayerplugin so i could watch streaming videos so ya if i am making any sense someone let me know whats im doing wrong...

the library (mplayerplugin.so) goes in .mozilla/plugins (not .mplayer/plugins)

thats my mistake its a typo i meant to put .mozilla there isnt a plugins folder in my ~/.mozilla directory

yeah try to just create the directory and put the lib in.
