I have it (and mplayer.sh.conf also) in /usr/local/bin.

I tried both -vo possibilities and so far the only effect has been 
obviously DXR3 S/PDIF audio sample rate change for the live DVB-T stream 
which continued to show on TV (audio became sloooooow) or vdr freezes 
depending on setup.

I even tried to replace whole mplayer.sh with a simple script like this

"mplayer -vo dxr3 -ao oss:/dev/em8300_ma some_video_clip.avi"

but no success. It is a bit surprising because VDR OSD informs about 
releasing DXR3 when mplayer plugin is started.

I wonder which approach should be taken for DXR3: -vo mpegpes or -vo 
dxr3? I haven't seen mplayer plugin in action, is there loss of VDR 
based OSD if mplayer.sh script uses dxr3 output directly? My LCD display 
shows a progress bar for mplayer plugin.
