just my 2 cents:

mplayer _does not depend_ on the win32codecs : it will work quite fine without them, and still be able to play an humungous number of video formats and codecs. The win32codecs are purely optional.

So, this looks like a different situation to win32codecs.sh to

in contrib? Both depend on some non-free software they download.

If it was packaged on its own, it'd go in contrib. However, it's a
single small part of a larger work, so it's fine to go in main.
