Someone suggested that somewhere else, but it didn't work for me getting an mjpeg stream from my IP camera.

I've been able to stream all kinds of video to my tablet's mplayer, including a webcam on my PC using VLC to encode the video.

There's something broken inside mplayer with mjpeg video, I think...
