I tried the command modification and this is what happened.
[root at localhost ~]# yum --enablerepo=atrpms -y install mplayer
Loading "installonlyn" plugin


Error getting repository data for atrpms, repository not found
[root at localhost ~]# yum --enablerepo=atrpms-stable -y install mplayer
Loading "installonlyn" plugin


Error getting repository data for atrpms-stable, repository not found

I actually have the repo file named correctly but didn't check it when I
wrote the last entry.

Here is a copy of the file:
[at-stable]
name=ATrpms for Fedora Core $releasever stable
baseurl=http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.atrpms.net/fc$releasever$basearch/atrpms/stable
enabled=0
gpgkey=http://www.atrpms.net/RPM-GPG-KEY.atrpms
