Coooooool! Loading the driver without parameters and using

LD_LIBRARY_PATH="v4l2-apps/libv4l/libv4l1/:v4l2-apps/libv4l/libv4l2/:v4l2-apps/libv4l/libv4lconvert/" \
LD_PRELOAD=v4l2-apps/libv4l/libv4l1/v4l1compat.so mplayer tv:// -tv \
driver=v4l:device=/dev/video0 -vo x11

started the video! Thanks a million, Hans!
