live isn't sufficient by itself, you need to also install dev headers.

When you enable a module with an option such as --enable-xx with
MPlayer's configure, what you are really doing is forcing the
compilation of the module, so if you don't have the necessary dev
headers, compilation will fail.
Please install live555 dev headers and things should go well.
