AFAIK, in general 32bit plugins don't usually interoperate well with 64bit apps (think firefox, nspluginwrapper, flash-plugin, etc.). As for mplayer, I remember that this didn't work before and was generally considered unfixable, so I guess today is still the same. But theory aside, I did an experiment --- downloaded one of the sample files from http://www.on2.com/index.php?617 , played no problem using mplayer.i686, while getting exactly the same error as the OP using mplayer.x86_64. In both cases all relevant codec files are in both /usr/lib/codecs/ and /usr/lib64/codecs/. I would really like to know about your setup if you are able to play any of those files using 64bit mplayer.
