Is there a workaround for this? :)P I can give you the cause at least: The video is played hardware-accellerated, so your processor has not to do all te work alone but it is assisted by your graphics-card. The graphics-card however can only accellerate one video at a time. I don't know how to tell mplayer to play a video without hardware accelleration on windows. The brute-force method would be to disable all graphics accelleration in your system settings, but you probably won't want that. Greets, Kiste
