mplayer -vo help

will give you a list of the available video output devices available for Mplayer. try some different video output devices available like:

mplayer -xv video_file.etc

mplayer -x11 video_file.etc

mplayer -sdl video_file.etc.

you get the idea...

Plus, make sure you have the needed codecs for the file type your attempting to play...
