I use a creative dxr3/h+ for just that purpose. Although mplayer has to
reencode anything that isn't mpeg1/2 so you need some processor. The tv
out is beautiful though. If there is a good video out card with a
framebuffer that could work similar I am interested, that way I don't
have to reencode the video on the fly. I am very happy with the dxr3
though.
