For a source build , mplayer needs a ton of prerequisites ( and the -devel.rpm's) to be installed and working first
recheck your "configure.log" file
you might not have built the audio code
but WHY build from source
so you DID NOT build the gtk gui for Gnome
this is the TERMINAL ONLY version
the one that you have to type in a long command line argument to use
mplayer in in the repos
also what version?
the SVN snapshot ?
( svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer )
or a different version
however the BEST option was to use
http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks...mediaOnCentOS7
and use the QT frontend to mplayer "smplayer"
