I do not know if it'll work here, but I am quite sucessful in saving
most movies (.flv, .wmv, .rm and so forth) with Download helper. This
is a plugin for firefox and will work on a EEE PC (Xandros) so it
should work here.
The video download plugins for firefox are here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/search?q=video+download&cat=all
I couldn't get the Video Download plugin working on my EeePC, but I
didn't try verry hard since there were so many to choose from.

It has a more simple GUI interface then Mplayer command codes
