Unfortunately attempting to set gmplayer Preferences->Video to change
from x11 to xv caused a crash with the appended message.  I have changed
the video mode by editing ~/.mplayer/gui.conf, so I'm OK here.

Thanks for your help.

========================= Crash =========================
MPlayer interrupted by signal 11 in module: unknown
- MPlayer crashed by bad usage of CPU/FPU/RAM.
  Recompile MPlayer with --enable-debug and make a 'gdb' backtrace and
  disassembly. Details in DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_crash.
- MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen.
  It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your
  gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read
  DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and
  won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug.
========================= Crash Ends =========================

I installed the necessary debug packages from Fedora and Rpmfusion
repos, ran gmplayer again, attempted to change video from x11 to xv, and
got this traceback:
