You shouldn't have to do anything else.  To test it, open a Konsole in 
the directory with some videos and execute:

	mplayer <video_file>

This should run the video.

It should run without all of those errors, but it seems to be currently 
normal to do so.  Try:

	kbuildsycoca --noincremental 2>&1 |grep mplayer

to make sure that none of them are relevant.  Something like:

kbuildsycoca: WARNING: '/usr/share/applications/mplayer.desktop' 
specifies undefined mimetype/servicetype 'audio/x-mp1'

is relevant only if you have files of the named MIME type (e.g. 
audio/x-mp1).
