mplayer -vo xv gives these error messages (a lot of these):
X11 error: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)

In the meanwhile I installed vlc and it suffers from the same problem as
xine-based apps (crash). I wonder why is it that only gstreamer works.

There are no intel driver related options in xorg.conf. In fact it's
rather short (short ServerLayout section, short Device section and short
Screensection, only to set bitdepth to 24bit, intel driver and default
layout) compared to F8 and older...
