Hmm, mplayer should support it all on its own. But you have to set some options, tv:// won't be enough. Here is what works for me:
mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:noaudio:width=640:height=480:device=/dev/video0 -fps 30
You need libv4l to do that (either built into your application or as LD_PRELOAD wrapper). I was going to upload that package to extra just now, but the server with the source tarball is unavailable right now.Ok, I'll try libv4l, thanks!
Should be in extra now. Version 0.5.2 should hit the mirrors soon. I think it even fixes a bug with your camera, not sure.
