If I looked correctly, this is libdca (dts) and maybe the internal faad.
I wonder if mplayer supports any plugin to add libdca support.

I don't use mplayer much. There is not a maintainer.

Does anyone know or care if the NO_BIN_ON_CDROM and NO_BIN_ON_FTP is 
removed by not including libdca by default?
