I posted very recently about a problem I was having with mplayer starting and immediately stopping on one of our machines.

I have noticed another poster in this list with, apparently, the same problem.

I have discovered that root can run mplayer without problems so it seems to be a permissions thing. The user is already in the video group.

Can anyone suggest what permissions might be wrong?
