What kind of memory leaking issues? I'm not aware of them. And still haven't found a video it wouldn't play :)

If Mplayer was a total dead end then perhaps the really old VLC could be picked up.
I think our current MPlayer is pretty solid base for updates and it has been working well over the years. Only the non-altivec version is an issue currently. Why to re-invent the wheel while we have the sources available at some developers, just encourage the current developers more :) VLC was so unfinished and unusable that I wouldn't look at that direction.
