Karim,

I think your mail is misleading. I will clarify a bit.
mplayer is NOT Gnome Media Player. mplayer stands for "movie player" and is
just one of the multiple video player available.
The official media player for gnome is totem which I believe is included in
osol.

mplayer uses its own code (based on latest ffmpeg library code) for decoding
the audio and video streams. Thus mplayer doesn't need plugins to play dvds
or mp3 if it was compiled with the correct options.

totem, on the other hand, uses the gstreamer multimedia framework. gstreamer
has a plugin architecture that make it trivial to add or remove support to a
particular format, for instance to comply with local laws.

so :

pfexec pkg install MBLmplayer

will install mplayer, while

pfexec pkg install MBLgst-plugin-dvd
pfexec install MBLgst-plugin-mp3

will add dvd and mp3 support to totem and other apps using the gstreamer
framework.

Regards
