For reasons I don't understand, the ftp site doesn't contain all packages. You should be able to install it from the port: # cd /usr/ports/multimedia/mplayer # make install It's a pig to use, unfortunately. See http://www.lemis.com/grog/videorecorder/packages.html for some observations. If you find something there with which you disagree, or which is incomplete, please let me know.
