Public bug reported:

Installed 2.0-426-gc32b3ed-2ubuntu0.1 on Ubuntu 12.04.1.

GUI file managers, such as Nautilus, were unaware of the existence of
mplayer because it does not install the necessary .desktop files to
associate it with the MIME types it can handle. Seems like this should
be part of the packaging for Ubuntu.

Work-around: follow the procedure here:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/67382/add-custom-command-in-the-open-with-dialog

to manually create the associations.
