Mplayer's right-click menu happily comes up on top of the video, I can place normal windows over the video... My Mplayer and my Nvidia drivers are "straight out of the box". I've neither enabled nor disabled any 'extmod' ... What is an extmod? The term doesn't seem to appear in Mplayer's manpage. As a workaround for those who *do* have such behaviour, the Mplayer manpage lists a bunch of keyboard shortcuts you could use instead of the right-click menu.
