On my system, mplayer was mentioned in the output of conflicts with the 
same packages installed. This system is an FC3 version that I chose to 
install everything and then upgraded multimedia and extras packages from 
the repos needed. I held back on upgrading the below because of having a 
working multimedia and let these packages stay on hold. No prior mention 
of the packages because I knew that the version of mplayer was not FC4T1 
specific.
Since Fedora Extras is not supposed to be dependent on livna, the 
multimedia (mplayer in this case) sounds like it might become a problem 
with worthy repositories like livna.
I have totem-1.0.1-1 installed and had no problem with any updates 
related to having totem-1.0.1-1 installed.
  The other conflicting packages did seem awfuly close, but were for 
i386 only and not for the x86_64 versions. It looks like totem for 
x86_64 or any of the listings that do not have the i386 counterpart 
conflicting might be the problem with Gene's particular i386 and x86_64 
system.

For comparison.
