I get the "your machine is too slow" message often from MPlayer, but I
ignore it. The bottom line is whether the movie plays smoothly and how
much of the CPU time it uses in doing so. If the movie plays OK, ignore
any messages from MPlayer, espcecially if there is unused CPU time (you
can check by running a utility like "top."
You said you can see the movie "well," so you probably don't have a
problem. Just close the dialog (if MPlayer was started with the GUI) and
keep watching the movie.
Finally, don't apologize for your English; it's fine. I'm sure I
wouldn't be able to post as well en Español, and that's the only other
language I know.
