You have spaces in the name of the file you wish to play you need to let it know that there are spaces in the filename, this is done with the \ (backstash). So try the following (as user first, and then root if it doesn't work):

mplayer -vo x11 /home/steven/Desktop/Movies/Movies/Fight\ Club\ DVD\ quality.avi

. do i have to do this to open every movie?

[dylunio]

Erm, okay, for the choppyness do you have graphics acceleration on via graphics card drivers? if your using vesa you may want to look into these.

You might also want to enable dma on your hard drive using hdparm

hdparm -d1 /dev/hda

(replacing /dev/hda with your hard drive (note, don't put the partitions in). And then adding hdparm at boot with

rc-update add hdparm default

do i have to do this to open every movie?

Do you know about tab compleation? it's when you press the <tab> key and it will fill in the rest for you e.g. if you type

cd /ho<tab>

it'l/ change to

cd /home/

then if you add ste and tab it

cd /home/ste<tab>

it'll come up as

cd /home/steve/

and so forth. If it doesn't fill it in it means there are more than one option that it could use, to see a list of these options tap the tab key twice.
How is this usful for you, well if you do

mplayer -vo x11 /home/steven/Desktop/Movies/Movies/Fight<tab>

it should compleat it automaticly as

mplayer -vo x11 /home/steven/Desktop/Movies/Movies/Fight\ Club\ DVD\ quality.avi

-- it will put in the backslashes for you.
