How do I install mplayer

[goldfox]

I am new to directadmin and have it installed on a virtual server.

I am going round in circles trying to find a way to do installs with a command.

I would like to install mplayer and have been given the following instruction;

You can also get MPlayer via Subversion. Issue the following commands to get
the latest sources:

svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer

Should I login as admin, reseller or user.....I have logged in to each trying to find how to install mplayer without success.

any help appreciated.

I'm a bit confused because DirectAdmin is a server product and mplayer is a desktop product.

From their website, here:

The recommended way to install MPlayer is to compile from source. Look at the unofficial packages section of our projects page if you do not wish to compile from source and/or are looking for packages that may be more tightly integrated with your platform. Just remember that we do not support any unofficial packages

DirectAdmin isn't going to have any facility to install a desktop program; it's a server product.
