I always go into /home/darklord/.mplayer/config and change one line:
##
## MPlayer config file
##
## This file can be copied to /etc/mplayer.conf and/or ~/.mplayer/config .
## If both exist, the ~/.mplayer/config's settings override the

Hmm, I would tend to doubt that (although I could always be wrong). I'm using
the latest Nvidia stuff here (4496) and was using 4393 before that. Mplayer
works fine here under both.
Some movies are just encoded so that you can't do much with them. Having said
that, you can launch Mplayer from the shell and pass options to it to adjust
things, even on the fly. Their web site has an overabundance of info.
HTHs! :-)
