I have a nVidea card that I got to replace my brand new ATI 9600 that 
would not work with FC1 using the ATI drivers.

When RH7 came out, my ATI cards were not supported by XFree86 and I 
could not get a replacement card to work in my computer due to PCI 
buss problems.  Things progress.

As someone else posted, your card may be old and in order to get the 
full features, you will have to bite the bullet and upgrade.

I use mplayer almost daily at home.
