you'll have to edit /etc/mplayer.conf and uncomment the line saying gui=YES...
By default it starts up as if it were running in the command line environment. |

Do "mplayer -gui" to bring up the gui.

mplayer -ao sdl -vo xv /path/to/movie.file

The better solution is, like Naan Yaar said before, to start
So mplayer uses your default GUI. If you have another GUI than gmplayer installed you can use this by changing the default-setting. _________________ Many greetings from Germany,
