The mplayer you installed actually has two parts - an mplayer GUI
wrapper and the "real" mplayer executable which decodes and plays.  For
AACplus you need to locate the "real" mplayer executable and replace the
GUI by the "real" mplayer - renaming if necessary.

This is also the case for AlienBBC plugin and Danco gave these
instruction aout the mplayer DMG.

You will need to check to see which of the files (mplayer or
mplayer_noaltivec) works on your systems with a test file.
