Default Video playback

Good hello all,

I just installed OpenBSD 6.1 on my Lenovo Ideapad 500 and can boot into cwm with no problems. I've installed Firefox and mplayer onto it and have also copied a video file over to it (an exercise video). The processor is a Core i7 with 12GB RAM and a 15.6" display. I tested it with YouTube and found no problems at all. It defaults to playing 1080 video and has no performance problems at full screen. The problem is when I try to use mplayer to play the video as it plays very slowly and has clear lag between screen output and sound. I've run fw_update and saw it installed the radeon drivers for the built-in video card.

Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? If so, how?

Thanks in advance.
