It appears the mga_vid.c that's included with mplayer is different from 
mga_vid.c found e.g. in dvdmunitions. The one from mplayer uses some 
sort of privately defined set of ioctls, while the latter uses standard 
V4L1 ioctls, as does the marvel mgayuv driver.
Unless mplayer knows how to deal with normal V4L style overlays, it 
won't be able to use mgayuv from marvel. If it knows how to use XVideo, 
then you wouldn't even need either drivers since X4 gives that for free 
on G200/400 cards.
