Well, that is exactly what is the case. MPlayer currently uses
ReadConsoleInput on Windows. I am not even sure if it's possible to
avoid that, I think Windows does not send some of the needed key events
to stdin.
So either you have to provide input in a way that works with
ReadConsoleInput or try to use -input file=...
