This is most likely a bug in the XVideo driver for your graphics card. The
fact that both MPlayer and Ogle show the same symptoms makes it extremely
unlikely that xine-lib (which is used by the other players) is at fault.
You can try to use an alternative output driver, at least with the xine
based players, to work around the problem. For xine-ui, try the command
line option "-V xshm" for software rendering. While the symptoms should be
gone, your CPU is likely to be unable to process the full frame rate with
this driver. Maybe you're more lucky with "-V opengl"...
Please let me know, how it works out for you, especially if you get it
working!
