I've never tried to install mplayer, so take what I say with a pinch of
salt/birdseed. But these look to me like dynamic link library files for a
Windoze system. You won't be able to do anything useful with them in Linux.

For installing the Linux codecs (*.so.*) maybe looking for and reading the
contents of your "default built-in codecs.conf" might give you some hints.
I'd imagine you'd find it in the source tree somewhere. Or maybe simply
sticking them in /usr/local/lib or /usr/local/lib/mplayer, then running
"ldconfig /usr/local/lib[/mplayer]", would do the trick.
