The answer to that one is on their FAQ:
Q. Why apt-get doesn't find this public key : NO_PUBKEY 07DC563D1F41B907 ?
A. Install the debian-multimedia-keyring package with apt-get "apt-get
install debian-multimedia-keyring" or with "dpkg -i
debian-multimedia-keyring" (click on the link to download the
package).

apt-cache show mplayer
Shows that the version in stable is 1.0~rc1-12etch2.

The mplayer that you can install in debian will be very restrictive
with the codecs that are supplied with it. You will have to look
elsewhere to install non-free codecs, google can help here.
http://www.princessleia.com/MPlayer.php looks to be a good start.
