strange mplayer behavior

Hey folks,

After not using mplayer for quit a while, i recently tried to watch a dvd on my laptop which has a resolution of  1400x1050. It works all fine, till i try to resize the window or switch to fullscreen. If i do so, the Screen starts flickering and ofter a little time X freezes. The funny thing is: if i resize the window "carefully enough" , means in small amounts, and go to fullscreen the flickering goes away and everything is fine. Also i don't have this Problem with my extern Monitor. I tried various aspect-ratios and vo drivers but i cant get it fixed.  Sadly mplayer gives me no useful debug-output about this.

Someone else with this problems?

Specs:

nvidia 260.19.36-2
X.Org X Server 1.9.4
dwm-5.8.2
