Hope you know C and are comfortable with it. The source tarball for SVGAlib should have a number of example programs; read their code and play around with it until you feel comfortable.

Er... how is the movie going to be displayed if X isn't running? mplayer *can* use SVGAlib, but that's likely to be slower than using X11 and Xv.
Er... decoding DiVX;-) movie files that have decent resolutions and framerates in realtime requires some fairly significant CPU power (PIII-700 or so). A PIII-700 is not "minimal hardware" yet; maybe in another 5 years. DVD players have a dedicated bit of silicon that does MPEG-2 acceleration, but you won't be limiting this thing to MPEG-2 files, will you?
See above. Good luck. How's the framerate and image quality of the output using SVGAlib, anyway?
