Why don't use the "xineplayer" which comes with vdr-xine (see 
documentation)?

Only one XV window can be present at one time. Mplayer falls back to -vo 
x11, which doesn't support hardware scaling. If you have powerful enough 
system, you can enable software scaling with mplayer -zoom option. 
Mplayer will still try hardware scaling first, and uses the software 
only as a fallback.
