Mplayer does not work with NetBSD. Its riddled with #ifdefs, and the code's pretty ugly the last time I checked. However, they do have new support for FreeBSD IIRC.

However, win32codecs/avifile are a part of pkgsrc and should work

I use apla on my NetBSD to watch the same movies I could on mplayer.
