One problem I see with your suggestion is that I need to play wmv
files from web links and the win32codecs flag for mplayer is masked
out on my box. Until I set this positive in my chroot'ed environment
all I got was audio. With it turned on I get video also.
If this cannot be turned on in the 64-bit world then the 64-bit world
wouldn't work for me.
The win32codecs flag enables mplayer to use binary codecs written for
Windows. Since for now these libraries are all 32 bit, they can't be called
from 64-bit code.
However, the 32-bit version of mplayer is able to use them. At least it does
on my box.

You can have mplayer(64 bit) and mplayer-bin(32 bit) concurrently on a
gentoo installation. Whenever you need the 32 bit part just use
mplayer-bin
