No, but it adds to the drop-down list of applications to open the file
with.  I'm not sure if you can customise what Evolution uses with the
plug-in's built-in play feature.

I added mplayer as a player just by putting in the command line for it
into Nautilus' open-with application for different types of files that
it can play.  I did this a while ago, I don't recall whether I just
typed in mplayer, or the full path.  But I didn't include any
parameters.
