<P>MPlayer supports cards with the Siemens DVB chipset from vendors like
  Siemens, Technotrend, Galaxis or Hauppauge. The latest DVB drivers are
  available from the <A HREF="http://www.linuxtv.org">Linux TV site</A>. If you
  want to do software transcoding you should have at least a 1GHz CPU.</P>

<P>Configure should detect your DVB card. If it did not, force detection with

<PRE>
  ./configure --enable-dvb
</PRE>

<PRE>
  mplayer -ao mpegpes -vo mpegpes -vop lavc,scale=512:576
</PRE>

<P>If you have a widescreen movie and you do not want to scale it to full height,
  you can use the <CODE>expand=w:h</CODE> plugin to add black bands. To view a
  640x384 DivX, try:</P>

<PRE>
  mplayer -ao mpegpes -vo mpegpes -vop lavc,expand=640:576 file.avi
</PRE>

<PRE>
  mplayer -ao mpegpes -vo mpegpes -vop lavc,scale=352:288 file.avi
</PRE>

<P>For OSD and subtitles use the expand feature of the OSD plugin. So, instead
  of <CODE>expand=w:h</CODE> or <CODE>expand=w:h:x:y</CODE>, use
  <CODE>expand=w:h:x:y:1</CODE> (the 5th parameter <CODE>:1</CODE> at the end
  will enable OSD rendering). You may want to move the image up a bit to get a
  bigger black zone for subtitles. You may also want to move subtitles up, if
  they are outside your TV screen, use the <CODE>-subpos &lt;0-100&gt;</CODE> switch

<P>In order to play non-25fps movies on a PAL TV or with a slow CPU, add the
  <CODE>-framedrop</CODE> option.</P>

<P>To keep the aspect ratio of DivX files and get the optimal scaling parameters
  (hardware horizontal scaling and software vertical scaling while keeping the
  right aspect ratio), use the new dvbscale plugin:</P>

<PRE>
for  3:4 TV:  -vop lavc,expand=-1:576:-1:-1:1,scale=-1:0,dvbscale
for 16:9 TV:  -vop lavc,expand=-1:576:-1:-1:1,scale=-1:0,dvbscale=1024
