Some things to try:

Tom,
Thanks for your suggestions, but I do not have much luck yet.

A bigger cache:
 mplayer -cache 8192 -min-cache 50

did not help


Dropping frames:
 mplayer -framedrop -hardframedrop

framedrop makes mplayer crash....

Lower bitrate:
ivtvctl --set-codec-params bitrate=$((256*1024*8)),bitrate_peak=$((2*256*1024*8))

It will take longer but still the same problems.

Also the combination of cache and lower bitrate and no post processing in mplayer does not help, and the interlacing looks terrible :-(


Less b-frames:
 ivtvctl --set-codec-params bframes=2

have not tried yet, but I do not have much hope.

Some more questions:
What is the difference reading from /dev/video0 and from a file?

Maybe it is a mplayer bug, is there an other player that gives good results?
