Curent (and thus supported) version of MPlayer is MPlayer SVN-r30524-4.3.2 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team If the problem still persists with that version, it might be helpful to provide a sample file. But first of all, without complete console output of MPlayer, I think noone can help you. Greets, Kiste
