Did you try phoenix ? It seems to work for me (Well, I installed latest
current in the morning, did pkg_delete -r pth && started rebuilding everything.
Phoenix was first and it seems to work really well).

Latest current && pkgsrc, XFree 4.2.1, AS 500/500. 

fwiw, the latest mplayer from pkgsrc no longer has the "green artifacts"-bug. 
It has played everything I've thrown at it. Pretty cool.
