Well I managed to handle the issue. In case anyone
else encounters this problem: I forgot to apply proper
width=<width> and height=<height> with the -tv switch.
Someone on IRCnet knew what to do what I threw the
catchword 'overlay' at him. According to what he said,
the v4l interface (bttv-driver?) does transmit these
values to mplayer but the numbers are totally screwed
so you have to supply them yourself.

MP+TV finally working, yippy. :)
