I have an Idea, but I haven't tried it yet. Microsoft makes available
for download a free beta of Windows XP for x86_64 now. Try grabbing the
needed dll's out of that and make a w64codecs.tar.gz and see if mplayer
will do the right thing. If not, get them a copy of the codecs and let
them do their magic. I put a link to the Windows XP beta on my new home
page. http://www.ckloiber.com and no, I can't design a better looking
page. At web design, I suck.
