Oh ok, I'll have a look - thanks for that!

The problems seem to be worst when it's been playing for a while and then I 
seek forward a few minutes fairly quickly (by pressing the up/right arrow a 
few times) - but after I've been seeking forward, if I immediately seek 
backwards then it almost immediately locks up.

Oh, and it only seems to do it in fullscreen -vo xv, if it's in a window it 
seems to be fine.  And when it does lock up, it seems as though only a bit of 
the overlay is visible, because I can see my desktop in the bottom half of 
the screen (which is how I can click in the xterm running mplayer to press 
Ctrl + C.)

Cheers,
Adam.
