And source code is available here:

One of the best (for OS/2) features of MPlayer is it's ability to use Win32 binary codecs, which obviously expands it's versatility greatly. All that is required for use of this feature is the Win32 binary codec package available here:

To install MPlayer and the codecs package, please see the README documentation in the archive.
