You don't have to put tmp in MyDocs. Someone suggested it for reasons unknown (he's afraid about space on rootfs, but tmp is tmp and it clears itself...). Basically, symlinking/moving /var/tmp isn't related to this thread.
The whole idea here, is to use mplayer (which got codecs bundled in and doesn't rely on Maemo ones) to play cached (by browser) video, instead of browser itself. No much reason to do it, most of the times - if video could be accelerated by DSP, it will be in browser, but not in maplyer, and if it couldn't mplayer won't accelerate it either (mplayer doesn't use DSP at all).
It *may* be useful for some rare cases, where Maemo lacks some codecs/whatever to watch particular video AND CPU is powerful enough to decode it fluently AND mplayer does have coded, that Mdemo is lacking.
But, to try it, You must know where particular site - that You're watching video on - saves video cache.

BTW, even if You find any case, where it's feasible - which I doubt - You don't need to bind anything via xbindkeys. You Could just open terminal and mplayer (or smplayer or kmplayer or whatever *mplayer) /path/to/cached/video. That's all the "trick".

Sorry dude, I have no idea or interest in that particular streaming site. You could be better, to find some site that streams via icecast or any other Open standard/protocol. Proprietary streaming services are a no-go, probably.

and those videos that arent playing smoothly in browser play just nicely in any video player on n900, flash player on those sites must be a resource hog
