I assume you're talking about a black border?
Determine what the  crop should be as follows:

mplayer -vf  cropdetect -vo sdl -ao sdl movie.avi

Let your movie play awhile: sometimes the format changes, especially after
first starting)
You should see a bunch of numbers like  (-vf crop=640:480:0:0) in the
originating console window.

After you see a consistent repeating set just plug it as one of the
parameters: e.g.
mplayer -vf crop=640:480:0:0 -vo sdl -ao sdl movie.avi

You can increase or decrease the border by changing the parameters. But
check the man page for further details: man mplayer.

Yes.
