For example:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/7.1-RELEASE/packages/All/

You might miss a few multimedia things (AFAIR flash and win32-codecs).

So I can not use multimedia for example I can not listen to music or see my favorite movie and film
it is very bad

Not exactly. You can play a lost of multimedia files. Take a look at the ports you have installed now and see if they work on amd64.

sh -c 'cd /var/db/pkg && for PORT in `ls -1`; do PD=`pkg_info -o ${PORT} | grep /` && cd /usr/ports/${PD} && pwd && make ARCH=amd64 patch clean; done'
