To get back the mp3 player, just refllash the firmware. You can take any Firmware you want, but i recommend using the latest 3.0 one. If you don´t want to do this, you can install some of the homebrew audio players available, like craigamp or oldplay.

As fr the TV-out, you should try in on another TV, favorably one with an S-Video jack.

To reflash the firmware you have to restart the GP2X with the SD card in and while holding START+SELECT. Follow the instructions in the GP2X wiki:
http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/Firmware_Upgrade

If you are not interested in that there are homebrew applications that are much better than the basic music player. I use GMU but i hear that craigamp is good too:

Try those out.
