I don't use debian. I normally build mplayer or faad with the options I
need.

I would have expected the debian repository to have built applications
for ARM processors to use Fixed point but perhaps speed was not a
concern.

Test mplayer on a command line to see if it can decode a file in
realtime.  The command below should decode a file (in this case
testfile.m4a) and send decoded output to /dev/null.

time mplayer -ao pcm:nowaveheader:file=/dev/null  testfile.m4a

If the time taken to decode a file is longer than the duration of the
audio track - then mplayer is probably not build with fixed point and
cannot be used to play a file in realtime.
