thanks for helping me, but ive already done this, i tried to merge this
codecs package but, it stills not working... and when i try emerge -pv
mplayer it stops at :

[ebuild   R   ] media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre7  -3dfx +3dnow +3dnowext +X
+aac +aalib +alsa (-altivec) -arts -bidi -bl +cdparanoia -cpudetection
-custom-cflags -debug +dga +directfb +divx4linux -doc +dts +dv +dvb +dvd
+dvdread +edl +encode +esd +fbcon +ggi +gif +gtk -i8x0 -ipv6 -jack
-joystick +jpeg +libcaca -lirc -live -lzo +mad +matroska -matrox +mmx
+mmxext -mythtv +nas +nls -nvidia +opengl +oss +png +real +rtc +samba
+sdl +sse +sse2 +svga +tga +theora +truetype +v4l +v4l2 +vorbis

I cant see the:

+win32codecs

+xanim -xinerama +xmms +xv +xvid +xvmc 0 kB


And, when i try to: emerge mplayer +win32codecs it complains:

br ~ # emerge mplayer +win32codecs
Calculating dependencies -
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "+win32codecs".

Do you have anyidea ?

thaks again,

Bruno Gola
