You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mplayer: Depends: libvorbis0 (>= 1.0.0) but it is not going to be installed
mplayer-386: Depends: libdirectfb-0.9-20 but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libdivxdecore0 (>= 1:5.0.1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libfaad2-0 (>= 2.0-rc3-0.0) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libggi2 (>= 1:2.0.4) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libpostproc0 (>= 0.90rc4) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libxvidcore2 (>= 1:0.9.2-0.2) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Can you post the /etc/apt/sources.list that you are using something is not right here that package should install with no problems. The libvorbis0 package that it is complaining about is from stable so you are still trying to install the stable version of mplayer what does the output of these commands look like on your machine you should be seeing testing/unstable for the candidate to install for each package except the vorbis one.
