A: You use a vo driver with single buffering (x11,xv). With xv you can change
the number of buffers in libvo/vo_xv.c :
Increase #define NUM_BUFFERS 1

+Q: What's the problem with gcc 2.96 ?
+A: gcc 2.96 is RedHat's UNOFFICIAL (it can be found only on RedHat sites, or
+ RedHat distributions) and BUGGY gcc release. gcc 2.96 is TOTALLY
+ unsupported by MPlayer, because it simply SKIPS MMX codes, it just does not
+ compile it. Important: this is NOT an MPlayer-specific problem, numerous
+ other projects (DRI, avifile, etc..) have problems with this shit too.
+ ** DO NOT USE gcc 2.96 !!! **
