There is an extension to see italian tv which uses mplayer as its backend. The extension doesn't install in microb or fennec either, but installs on iceweasel, but I need to tell it how to reach the proper, hw accelerated mplayer.
mplayer isn't hardware accelerated, even on maemo. if you follow the instructions above you get a totem player which is hardware accelerated. if your plugin allows you to choose a player, choose totem, if it doesn't you can try renaming the totem executable to mplayer (assuming you don't have mplayer installed in easy debian)
