Maybe you should try other video-output drivers, unless you
have very rare videocard. Try to look what "xvinfo" command
will print. Rather possibly, you will have large output, that
is your xv capabilities list. If so, try "-vo xv" switch for mplayer.
Also, you may try "-vo x11" or other from list printed via
"mplayer -vo help" command.
Curretly you use framebuffer device, it does not work for me at all,
however, it works on some machines I have seen.
If nothing good happens, you also may try to use SDL, it is not
installed by default in some distros, you probably will need
to install it and recompile mplayer so that "-vo sdl" will be valid.
