Hi,

i've written a small shell script that plays AVI videos via DVBs card using 
current cvs of mplayer - this script is meant as a replacement for the 
mplayer.sh script in the vdr package ! (and was in fact derived from it)
This version deals with the resolutions of source avis and scales them to the 
appropriate DVBs resolutions maintaining aspect ratio !
However it's still beta, very ugly (needs some clean-up and stuff), work in 
progress and so on ... - but it works ! So try it !

If it works as supposed it should play every AVI that mplayer can play (and 
mplayer can play nearly everything - big THANK YOU to the developers !!!) on 
the DVBs card !

simply use: mplayer.sh xxx.avi

As written above it's still beta, but i will improve it - please report any 
suggestions and problems via mail !

If youre interested you can download it at

Sorry, there is little docs at the moment - just take a look in the sample 
conf file (some params are explained)

Martin
