What about vlc ?
it even has an option to run right on the fbdev, altough it was not
working in the last debian package of it (it tried to open the X gui even if
you told it to output on the fbdev, which naturally don't work), but it should
be fixed in the next upload.
Naturally there is no acceleration (not yet anyway, am thinking of playing
with it) for fbdev. Xv works fine though, altough you need 4.0.2 or better for
it to work.
