we need more info? did you read bugreports.html?

what video-mode do you use? 
do you use X? 
what kind of driver do you use? the one given by XFree or the one from
www.nvidia.com?
how did you get mplayer? 
downloaded the sources from www.mplayerhq.hu?
downloaded the rpms from www.mplayerhq.hu?
got the rpms with your distribution? what distribution?

try other video-out-modes:
"mplayer -vo sdl"
"mplayer -vo x11"

bye,
gabor
