I have tried playing various container types (avi, mkv, and mp4) with various encodings (divx, xvid, h264, ogg, au) and all have failed with the same error message: $ mplayer /tmp/test.mkv MPlayer 1.1-4.5.3 (C) 2000-2012 MPlayer Team Playing /tmp/test.mkv. libavformat version 53.32.100 (external) Mismatching header version 54.6.101 libavformat file format detected. MPlayer interrupted by signal 11 in module: demux_open - MPlayer crashed by bad usage of CPU/FPU/RAM. Recompile MPlayer with --enable-debug and make a 'gdb' backtrace and disassembly. Details in DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_crash. - MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen. It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug. It should be noted that this problem, for some reason, does not extend to mp3 files--they seem to play just fine.

It looks like mplayer-1.1 needs the masked ffmpeg-0.11.1.ebuild. With ffmpeg-0.11.1 unmasked mplayer no longer crashes.
(In reply to comment #5) > It looks like mplayer-1.1 needs the masked ffmpeg-0.11.1.ebuild. > With ffmpeg-0.11.1 unmasked mplayer no longer crashes. So the dependency needs fixing. Dear maintainer, please change >=media-video/ffmpeg-0.10.3 into >=media-video/ffmpeg-0.11.1

should be fixed in 1.1-r1, thanks for reporting
I just did an emerge --sync but the -r1 depends still shows >=media-video/ffmpeg-0.10.3 what was the fix for this?
According to the ChangeLog, it was being built with the ffmpeg headers bundled in the mplayer tarball and now it is using the ones installed by media-video/ffmpeg. It appears the changes were made to files/dump_ffmpeg.sh and by the addition of a patch (files/mplayer-1.1-ffmpeg.patch), not the content of the ebuild.
