I'm not sure if this is related or not. On my setup:

15:19 [EMAIL PROTECTED]/x86_64 [Desktop] >cat /etc/lsb-release 
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=7.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=gutsy
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 7.10"

15:21 [EMAIL PROTECTED]/x86_64 [Desktop] >dpkg -l mplayer
ii  mplayer                 2:1.0~rc1-0ubuntu13.1   The Ultimate Movie Player 
For Linux
ii  xorg-driver-fglrx                          8.452.1-1    Video driver for 
the ATI graphics accelerato (envy installed)

I get flickery video playback with gstreamer, totem and mplayer. It
looks very much like the video redraw is out of sync with the screen
refresh. I experimented with the -vo option of mplayer and got the
following results:

xv, gl, gl2, sdl - flickers horribly
x11, ggi - works, nice stable display
dga - crashes X
xvidx, xover - no driver loaded

So I don't think it's a problem with the low level driver, just some of
the display modes don't sync while others do.

I currently have set my ~/.mplayer/config to:

15:24 [EMAIL PROTECTED]/x86_64 [Desktop] >cat ~/.mplayer/config
# Write your default config options here!
vo=ggi

As a  work around. I've also uninstalled totem-mozpluging to use the
mplayerplugin
