some question about installing mplayer


Hello! I am from China. A new member here.
My English is not good,I'm sorry if I make some mistake.

I try to install mplayer (*.tar.bz2), but it display that I need two packages:
libpng & libpng-dev. When I download the two packages (libpng-1.2.7-1.i386.rpm & libpng-devel-1.2.7-1.i386.rpm)and setup them,it also can not install the mplayer. Could you tell me why? I am a new user with RedHat 9.0. Many thanks!
