If I was unclear: please update again, I committed a fix for such a bug just yesterday.
If that does not fix it, we can investigate further.
And I figured out a possible explanation why it happend, probably due to the additional scale filter needed with corevideo.
This is kind of unrelated, but you might want to compile MPlayer with SDL support and use -vo gl. It can be a lot faster than the default corevideo and I think it works quite nicely nowadays. Though I admit it lacks a few features (and does add some other nice ones, so it depends on your preferences if it's good).
