Does anyone use mplayer?

It locks up.
It used to work with my Matrox G200 but I upgraded to a GeForce2 MX400.

I get this error when I tried to play a DVD.
"The selected video_out device is incompatible with this codec.
VDecoder init failed

".
I tried both the "xv" and "x11" output devices but both locked up and gave me that error.
