I had this issue a couple of times too. For me it happens if i try to play a video with an unsupported codec. After that i cannot play any video. I think this happens because the dsp crashes and after that is in some unrecoverable state.
Fix: Restart the N900.

totally worked gracias for the help. it still does this every now and again but its a realatively painless fix to simply reboot and delete files that i know the n900 cant play

Go to X-Term and kill some big processes:
killall gst-video-thumbnailerd
kill `ps | grep mafw-gst-renderer | grep -v grep | cat -d ' ' -f2`
Install KMPlayer and use it instead of system media player.
System media player starts thumbnailerd and you have some video files which can't be played on N900. It stacks the whole process.
