I have tried:

but then it does not divert the stdout& stderr output to the log file
specified above. I suspect that the log file contains the movie (which
plays OK)& text because it's huge after a few seconds playing, gEdit
does not recognise as a text file and Movie Player does not play it.
That file shouldn't contain the movie. That's not what mplayer puts on
stdout. You'll get huge log files unless you use -quiet or
-really-quiet with mplayer. Can't say why gedit would be confused.
Embedded control characters, maybe? Try to cat the file and see what it
looks like.
