Hi, mplayer is building atm along with half of kde/gnome, but AFAIK wmv formats, especially windows media codecs are 32-bit only right now, because the actual win32codecs have to be used to decode them. If you try to rebuild mplayer in 32-bit mode it should work (which is what i had to do for firefox to get flash working).
This is in sortof a work in progress. hopefully some 32-bit exec wrappers can be written soon to help with this.
again, AFAIK.

Using a 32bit compiled mplayer under 2005.0 and wmv works here
