Well, I just went through my list of MPlayer codecs (had them backed up on a HD I forgot I had) and I found that removing a lot of the files slims it down tremendously. I dunno what each codec does for you, but here's a list of the ones that I think might be necessary. If any aren't, lemme know and I'll cut 'em out:
Code Sample | 14_4.so.6.0 28_8.so.6.0 3ivX.qtx acelpdec.ax atrc.so.6.0 avimszh.dll avizlib.dll cook.so.6.0 ddnt.so.6.0 divx.dll divx_c32.ax divxa32.acm divxc32.dll divxdec.ax drv2.so.6.0 drv3.so.6.0 drv4.so.6.0 mcdvd_32.dll mpg4c32.dll mpg4ds32.ax msscds32.ax msvidc32.dll sipr.so.6.0 tokf.so.6.0 tokr.so.6.0 vid_3ivX.xa vid_3ivX_d3.5_linuxELFx86c6.xa wma9dmod.dll wmadmod.dll wmspdmod.dll wmv8ds32.ax wmv9dmod.dll wmvdmod.dll wmvds32.ax

Using all of those codecs, including Quicktime, the gzipped codec file size is 5.7 MB. If you cutout Quicktime, the file size drops down to 3.6 MB. That's using gzip -9. If you use bzip, which is slightly better at compression, you can compress the codecs tar file down to 3.4M without Quicktime. But Quicktime is not that common for the average end user, so you don't really need it.
So if anyone can see any others to get rid of, lemme know and we might be able to do something with this - because MPlayer is a very good way to view media.
