By default the ivtv driver and the PVR-150 output an MPEG-2 Program Stream containing MPEG-2 Video and MPEG-2 Audio Elementary Streams. Any Linux video application worth it's salt (mplayer, VLC, ffmpeg) should be able to handle that MPEG-2 PS with no problem. It's just a matter of using the correct command line argument to do what you want to do. mplayer only needs the device node name as a command line argument to play back the stream.
