yum install gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-ffmpeg gstreamer-plugins-ugly -y

From your linked wiki page:
[quote]RPMfusion Repository - (See http://rpmfusion.org/) Still in its infancy, particularly as regards EL5 packages - most available packages are in "testing" stage as of this writing. [b]Suggest extreme caution if using this repo[/b].[/quote]
You are using third party repos without [url=http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities]yum-priorities[/url].
Especially with RPMfusion, that's a dangerous proposition. I suggest you either disable these repos or install and configure yum-priorities.

As for multimedia support: see [url=http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/MultimediaOnCentOS]this wiki page[/url]. Works with CentOS5, haven't tried it on CentOS6 yet.

Installing mplayer from the rpmforge repo has worked for me.
