Hello:
If you scan through your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and look for errors and or warnings.
You should also have a section in there that has the following information [or similar] present:
PHP Code:
(IILoadModule"extmod"
(IILoading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libextmod.so
(IIModule extmodvendor="X.Org Foundation"
    
compiled for 7.1.1module version 1.0.0
    Module 
class: X.Org Server Extension
    ABI 
class: X.Org Server Extensionversion 0.3
(IILoading extension SHAPE
(IILoading extension MIT-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD
(IILoading extension BIG-REQUESTS
(IILoading extension SYNC
(IILoading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
(IILoading extension XC-MISC
(IILoading extension XFree86-VidModeExtension
(IILoading extension XFree86-Misc
(IILoading extension XFree86-DGA
(IILoading extension DPMS
(IILoading extension TOG-CUP
(IILoading extension Extended-Visual-Information
(IILoading extension XVideo
(IILoading extension XVideo-MotionCompensation
(IILoading extension X-Resource
(IILoadModule"nvidia"
(IILoading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so 
In your case the (II) Loading extension XVideo does not appear to be loading?

Have you tried the opengl driver in mplayer? I assume you have gmplayer (yum install mplayer*, if not)
(Select from Preferences->Video)

or try vlc or xine instead (vlc seems to work for most people, enable the livna repository then yum install vlc)

Well then the XVideo extension not loading would be the reason for your problem. But why isn't it loading? I have never seen it not load before.

AIGLX prevents the XVideo extension from loading.
Disable AIGLX with
Code:
Section "ServerFlags"
       Option "AIGLX" "off"
Endsection
in xorg.conf

AIGLX is enabled by default in the latest xorg.
Add the section I suggested above in the xorg.conf file (I'm not sure if you need to disable even the composite extensions, though). Then restart X and try mplayer with xv output driver.
Avoid if possible using the gl/gl2 video output driver: in case you absolutely want the desktop effects enabled, they can improve the video playng performance of mplayer and xine but they require much more cpu than xv.
BTW, xine-check (in the xine-devel package, IIRC) can tell you how "good" is you system for video and dvd playing...

Can you post the output of
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
and
uname -r
and
rpm -aq | grep -F nvidia

I did a full yum update and rebooted. Nvidia drivers stopped working (by which I mean my glxgear fps dropped to ~300). I dropped to runlevel 3 and installed the nvidia drivers from the Nvidia website (seemed to work, glxgears fps are now 1300). I then tried to play a video file but the same result. I tried to install kmod nvidia but...

I noticed I had 4 different kernels installed. I deleted the 2 oldest versions (which included the one I was running on) and their dependencies. I kept the two newer ones (running latest, other is backup).

After a reboot everything loaded up fine (nvidia drivers and full screen mplayer support) without the need to re-install anything.
