Ahh! Finally! I followed your directions (with the exception of using 
"geometry=720x480" for ntsc) and it works! The Directfb-0.9.19 looks like it 
did the trick. 

The only problem i'm having now with the basic Freevo setup is that there is 
quite a bit of flicker in the SDL menus. Mplayer plays using dfbmga and looks 
awesome, but the Freevo menus are almost seizure-inducing. What settings 
should I tweak to fix this?

I'm so close, thanks everyone for all the help.
