You might try to remove your existing installation of mplayer and mencoder and yum them from livna. I am not sure, but I believe they have libmp3lame support compiled in. Otherwise, download the source and compile it yourself. It should autodetect lame and compile properly. I have been using the latter option (almost) always, since I couldn't find a rpm package that was compiled with options I needed...
