You could always try what I often do - download the CVS and compile it,
but don't run "make install".  Then you can run mplayer directly from
the CVS directory, and if you run into any problems you can just go back
to your old /usr/local/bin/mplayer instead.

Or you could rename /usr/local/bin/mplayer to "mplayer-old" and then
upgrade whenever you want, and if you have any problems just run
"mplayer-old" instead of "mplayer" when you watch your movies to get
back to your "reliable" version.

Cheers,
Adam.
