You might need to do the following:
1. Edit /etc/sysconfig/prelink and change
PRELINK_OPTS=-mR
to
PRELINK_OPTS="-mR –no-exec-shield”
2. touch /var/lib/misc/prelink.force
3. /etc/cron.daily/prelink
This relinks all the applications, and it takes quite a while.
4. execstack -s /path/to/mplayer
This turns off exec-shield for the mplayer binary.
That did the trick for me and stopped the segmentation fault with .wmv
