What shall I do now?

Do you have an actual error message in the terminal? Also, you can't run 
mplayer in the background at startup.

See below.

It looks like your MOV file is broken or somehow malformed.

Download a test movie from here and try playing it: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201549

The first 2 worked for me w/out any problems in mplayer-1.3.0
