You can define WITH_GUI when you build the port (see the Makefile). I
also think that there are some graphical frontends in ports/multimedia
that you might want to look at.

But as I've never used any gui for mplayer I don't know if they bring in
any additional functionality.

Note that if you use the command line you can put options in
~/.mplayer/config so most of the time you just have to enter something
like "mplayer -dvd 1" to watch a movie.
