Some success, some failures:
When I launch MPlayer simply as "mplayer dvd://1", then it plays the
DVD fine, crusing along at about 50% of my CPU time (compared to
Totem-xine's 33%).
Using "gmplayer dvd://1" also launches the nice GUI controller, but
CPU usage rockets to about 95%, and MPlayer fails to keep up.
Output from MPlayer below.

************************************************
**** Your system is too SLOW to play this! ****
************************************************
Possible reasons, problems, workarounds:
- Most common: broken/buggy _audio_ driver
- Try -ao sdl or use the OSS emulation of ALSA.
- Experiment with different values for -autosync, 30 is a good start.
- Slow video output
- Try a different -vo driver (-vo help for a list) or try -framedrop!
- Slow CPU
- Don't try to play a big DVD/DivX on a slow CPU! Try -hardframedrop.
- Broken file
- Try various combinations of -nobps -ni -forceidx -mc 0.
- Slow media (NFS/SMB mounts, DVD, VCD etc)
- Try -cache 8192.
- Are you using -cache to play a non-interleaved AVI file?
- Try -nocache.
