Does mplayer started on its own behave differently when using the mplayer backend in MediaBox?
Can you upload such a video somewhere so that I am able to reproduce the problem?
Hiya pycage.

I've mentioned this before, but it looks like mplayer through your Mediabox is software scaling the video rather than hardware scaling it.

Maybe the software scaling chews up more CPU because my tablet just can't seem to handle it. They all work fine directly from mplayer though.

Here's a test video for you to try.

Thanks for listening.
