I had this problem when running it in the console using the vesa frame
buffer. Never tried it with a frame buffer under X.
Sounds like you have a problem with the video acceleration.
What X and video card/driver are you using.
Try to see if mplayer -vo xv or mplayer -vo gl work (I guess they won't
but maybe you'll get lucky. Otherwise maybe a proper accelerated video
driver will help).
Also try looking in the help about software scaling. It will probably
too slow, depending on you cpu but could point at the problem.
