Christian is going to change the epoch number on mplayer so the broken Debian version doesn't get installed, I emailed him and he emailed me right back.

OK, thanks for the bug report. I'll increase the epoch number for my
packages.

Christian

Until he fixes it I have it on hold, for anyone that uses smxi it is already on hold so you do not have to hold it manually.

$ apt-show-versions -a mplayer
mplayer 1:1.0.rc2svn20100501-0.0 hold ok installed
mplayer 1:1.0.rc2svn20100501-0.0 unstable www.debian-multimedia.org
mplayer 2:1.0~rc3+svn20100502-1 sid ftp.debian.org
mplayer/sid upgradeable from 1:1.0.rc2svn20100501-0.0 to 2:1.0~rc3+svn20100502-1
