I have the same error just playing AVIs with the mplayer plugin. I can play mpegs, but not divx or xvid...get the same error
Ah, of course, the video needs to be converted to mpeg1 for playback on DVB/Dxr3 devices. For PAL output, try: -vf scale=720:-2,lavc=2:25 or -vf dvbscale,scale=-1:0,expand=-1:576:-1:-1:1,lavc=2:25
Also search mplayer manual page with keyword DVB for more information.
