No need for that. I'm running the 64bit versions of Amarok, Kaffeine and Xine on my 10.3 box, all from Packman, and there's no problem with them. For video transcoding I use FFmpeg, making packages from the latest sources in the FFmpeg SVN rather than using Packmans version. For MP3 encoding, I use Lame on the command line for WAV files, or grip for ripping CDs.
Last I checked, there were some multimedia quirks on the 64-bit OS, but not on the 32-bit OS. For instance, some movie files, don't play correctly, some sound files play like alvin and the chipmunks on 64-bit, but no problem on 32-bit. I keep checking back every so often to see if 64-bit has gained parity yet, but for all of my own systems, 32 bit still makes a lot more sense.
