    I've been runnin F7 all along, now way past test3. Long ago I 
gave up on either ATRpms or Livna builds.

    http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html    and follow the 
simple instructions under "Downloading MPlayer from Subversion"

    After the first time, a quick 'svn update' will grab the latest 
src changes, 'make' is real quick as it just recompiles those 
changes.  I use './configure --prefix=/usr' so that mplayer, 
mencoder binaries will be in /usr/bin 

    MPlayer dev-SVN-r22979-4.1.2 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team   
Today's update (just now).  IMO, much better mplayer (mencoder) 
than deprecated 3rd party versions for Fedora.
