I am still running version 2.80 of the mplayerplug-in and it works just 
fine. Though I must admit that I had the same problem as Mark at the 
beginning. It came from the default video driver used by 
mplayer/mplayerplug-in which wasn't compatible with my video card. I had 
to edit the ~/.mplayer/mplayerplug-in.conf file:

vo=xv
ao=alsa
osdlevel=1

I hope that it helps.
