Most of those files have rather static content at the start which means that there's sometimes only a frame every second. You can verify that by looking at MPlayer's status line, the value behind V: should be jumping around. MPlayer will stop playing with the last frame before the -endpos, so if you see the status bar jumping e.g. from 2 seconds to 11 seconds, MPlayer will stop after 2 seconds with -endpos 10. If your issue does not match this description it might be an actual bug though, and details would be welcome.
