As was mentioned, mplayer isn't well maintained.  I fiddled with USE
flags until I got as close to a clean system as I could.  I ended up
with mplayer being the only thing that wouldn't compile.  It would fail
almost all the time.  If it would compile, the videos wouldn't play.  If
it failed, something else would work but the videos would play.  I did a
duck search.  I found a interesting tidbit of info from another distro
where a person was trying to install mplayer manually.  That person had
to switch back to a older gcc to get mplayer to compile clean.  So, I
installed gcc 13, had 14 installed, and emerged mplayer just fine.  So,
it seems certain conditions, maybe USE flags, would cause mplayer to
fail with the new gcc.  The biggest thing, I had to have the latest
unstable version of ffmpeg to play the videos.  That was the hang up.  I
just had to figure out how to have it and mplayer be able to compile.

Now who among us would have ever thought of that?????  If it wasn't for
that search I did, I wouldn't have thought of gcc being the problem. 

My next question.  Given mplayer is getting old and rotting on the vine
so to speak, anyone know if one can get rid of it completely?  Right
now, Devedeng requires it and Smplayer does to, even tho I have it set
to use mpv now.  I found a couple other packages but I may can do
without them.  I'm just wondering how much longer mplayer is going to
last before packages that must have mplayer is going to be tree cleaned
because they no longer work. 

Thanks to all for the help.  We were all hammering at it for sure. 

Dale

I enabled some USE flags and tried to recompile with those.  It
failed on some, again.  I'm giving it another go now.

Well, Micheal helped me with USE flags.  I needed some that I had no
idea about.  Some related to hardware I have, or think I have since they
may be to old.  Some related to Vulkan.  Anyway, after a lot of fiddling
with USE flags, I still can't get gpac and mplayer to rebuild.

Anyways, I did an emerge sync and was able to emerge the current stable 
version 1.5_p20241125 of mplayer just fine (it wasn’t installed before). 
This is an AMD-only system, just like yours I think. Since your problematic 
header files come from ffmpeg, here are my active ffmpeg use flags:

X alsa bluray bzip2 cpudetection dav1d doc encode frei0r gnutls gpl iconv 
jpegxl lcms libass libdrm lzma modplug mp3 network opengl opus pic postproc 
pulseaudio rav1e sdl srt ssh svg theora threads truetype twolame vorbis 
vulkan webp x264 x265 xvid zlib

The version is 6.1.2, installed back in December. I have not touched this 
installation since then.

      I suspect we have different profiles and maybe even different CPUs
      as well.  I might add, mplayer actually built once with the
      current USE flags.  It wants to rebuild due to preserved libs but
      there is no change to the USE flags.  I suspect the reason mplayer
      is failing has to do with gpac failing.  I could change the USE
      flags to stop gpac from being pulled in but that may mean my
      videos won't play again.  So, I checked, nothing actually depended
      on gpac according to equery d.  So, I removed it.  I then tried to
      emerge mplayer again.  It still failed.  I disabled two USE flags
      that I added to make.conf, vaapi vdpau.  It still fails.  Oh, I'm
      typing this as I do things.  I've currently removed several USE
      flags I added and removed some packages from the package.keyword
      file, going back to stable.  Lots of stuff to compile.  I'll be
      back.  OK.  Back.  After removing some USE flags, I have a clean
      rebuild.  The new .mkv video files no longer play tho.  I'll start
      enabling USE flags until the videos start to play again or I get a
      failure in building a package again.  I'll try to post back the
      end result.  Might help some other poor soul.  <br>
      <br>
      Oh, I found out what depends on mplayer.  It's
      media-video/devedeng that I use to burn videos to media DVDs.  I
      don't see a way to make it depend on mpv.  Not a obvious one
      anyway.  Is there a software package that burns DVDs the same way
      but doesn't need mplayer?  I don't make DVDs often but I'd like to
      keep a tool around just in case.    <br>

    As was mentioned, mplayer isn't well maintained.  I fiddled with USE
    flags until I got as close to a clean system as I could.  I ended up
    with mplayer being the only thing that wouldn't compile.  It would
    fail almost all the time.  If it would compile, the videos wouldn't
    play.  If it failed, something else would work but the videos would
    play.  I did a duck search.  I found a interesting tidbit of info
    from another distro where a person was trying to install mplayer
    manually.  That person had to switch back to a older gcc to get
    mplayer to compile clean.  So, I installed gcc 13, had 14 installed,
    and emerged mplayer just fine.  So, it seems certain conditions,
    maybe USE flags, would cause mplayer to fail with the new gcc.  The
    biggest thing, I had to have the latest unstable version of ffmpeg
    to play the videos.  That was the hang up.  I just had to figure out
    how to have it and mplayer be able to compile. <br>
    <br>
    Now who among us would have ever thought of that?????  If it wasn't
    for that search I did, I wouldn't have thought of gcc being the
    problem.  <br>
    <br>
    My next question.  Given mplayer is getting old and rotting on the
    vine so to speak, anyone know if one can get rid of it completely? 
    Right now, Devedeng requires it and Smplayer does to, even tho I
    have it set to use mpv now.  I found a couple other packages but I
    may can do without them.  I'm just wondering how much longer mplayer
    is going to last before packages that must have mplayer is going to
    be tree cleaned because they no longer work.  <br>
    <br>
    Thanks to all for the help.  We were all hammering at it for sure.
