I am experiencing a problem with mplayer (from FreshRPMs): when in fullscreen mode, it only displays around 3/4rs to 7/8ths the size of the actual full screen. The black borders or video image don't extend fully to the right or bottom; the display is shoved in the upper left corner at 0,0.
Try adding "zoom=yes" to your ~/.mplayer/config file. This did the trick for me.
