i had problems with the gui when building from source, but when using the plf rpm's gmplayer worked fine. on 8.2 the only way i could get it to work was by upgrading my gtk+ to 2.0x (along with atk, pango, and a couple other deps all supplied at gtk.org) You might try that. Best of luck... mplayer a nice little ap, even without the gui but that does make it much easier to deal with for windoze expats.
