This is an official Debian repository, which includes mplayer2 but not mplayer... > deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org jessie main non-free ...but this is not one of "the Debian repos". It's an independent repository, maintained by a third party; it is not officially part of Debian. This is stated explicitly at https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia and https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/FAQ. If you have problems with a package obtained from there, you probably need to contact the person who maintains that site and builds its packages. If you're lucky, you might find someone here who also uses that repository and knows its ins and outs, but I wouldn't bet on it. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
