Whatever gio-fam is, MPlayer does not depend on it. 
I'd be surprised if MPlayer even had any optional
dependency on it, as it is gnome stuff[1].

So, first question, where did you get the MPlayer
soruce from and second why do you think MPlayer
depends on gio-fam?

locate libgio-2.0
if that doesn't show any results ending in .so or .a,
you are missing libgio-2.0
