To play videos with out going to X (with mplayer) you'll need to use the
framebuffer or the SVGA lib as output.

Using: 
    mplayer -vo fbdev file.mpg
        
or:
    mplayer -vo svga file.mpg
        
should work from the console. 

    mplayer -vo help

gives a list of the available video output drivers.

I'm not sure about other media players.
