[Mplayer-dvb] low processor power for divx view

yes

mplayer -vo mpegpes:tmpfile.mpg -vop lavc=8000,... ...

then in 2nd pass you can play it:

mplayer -vo mpegpes tmpfile.mpg

note that 1st pass will create *huge* file, around 1MByte/second!

you can also transcode it to mpeg1 avi with mencoder, using P/B frames, so
it will be much smaller file with same quality (but processing took longer).
