hello,
The "mplayer-31774" was installed by "pacman -Syu". Then "mplayer abcd.mp3" gives
mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libx264.so.104: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
is this a error in "mplayer-31774" or is something wrong in my system?

be sure that your x264 package is really called like that and not one from aur
Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Similar problem. I had to
ln -s libx264.so.104 libx264.so.98

Oh-oh. That's not the right way of fixing things. Something went wrong and you want to know what and why. Symlinking is a quick'n'dirty way that often works but equally often leaves things dangling after a while.

please don't do that again. don't suggest that crappy fix ever.
the best solution is to see what x264 or mplayer or whatever you have.
pacman -Qs x264
pacman -Qs mplayer
note the name. if is x264-git then you should remove it and install the one from extra
if the name is x264, then you should fully update your system.
same applies for mplayer or others packages or recompile them against new x264.
BUT NEVER DO SYMLINKS

Fully update your system.
Updating your system means also updating any AUR packages you may have.

I'm sorry, I wasn't suggesting anyone use it, I just meant to state what I did - my choice, we're supposed to know what we're doing when we use Arch after all! I needed the functionality urgently.
And you're right, for some reason I've got the wrong x264, so please accept my apologies, point taken, it won't happen again.
Edit: I'm going bonkers... mplayer and x264 are both the official packages, so I'll need to check my mirrors.

The answers could be more helpful...
mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libx264.so.104: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
is this a error in "mplayer-31774" or is something wrong in my system?
This message means that mplayer was linked against a libx264 that is not present on your system.
This can has two causes:
a) You have installed a x264 yourself which does not match the version in the repos.
b) You use a mirror on which either mplayer or x264 is not up to date.
