The newer mplayer won't work with our system ffmpeg, so we would need to
compile in ffmpeg statically? Would this be acceptable for the security
team? I suppose not.

Moreover, ftp-master blocks any work on mplayer. If you could talk to
someone to get mplayer out of (binary) NEW, that would allow me to work
again on the package.
