you'll need a compiz-patched mplayer to render the video - that is, it patches the code to run the 'xv' video driver to point to compiz instead. when that'll all fine & done, run mplayer using 'xv' as the video, and compiz will do the rendering.
result: redirected video, thats higher on the CPU than actual xv but much lower so than x11, and smoother + prettier might I add. that what i use.

the real fix for this will come when all direct rendered data - that is, xv video & all fashions of opengl apps that draw straight to the framebuffer - gets to be redirected using DRI2, which is still somewhat experimental and for which fglrx support is expected to be somewhere in the long, long term future. unfortunatly.
