In fact, I tried both mvp and MPlayer, but I couldn't find out the right syntax to make it work. Same with mplayer.

No, it can't, sorry.
According to a conversation with somebody from the VLC team, this issue is caused by a bug in libvlccore.so, introduced in VLC 3.0.13,
which is apparently still present in 3.0.16.
In case you want to see for yourself, here's what the VLC log looks like on an MX19.4 live system, where there's still VLC 3.0.12 in use, before any updates are done:
Code:
[00005560397fa570] main libvlc: VLC is being executed with the standard Interface. Use 'cvlc', to run VLC without interface.
[00007f81d056fd80] deinterlace filter error: unknown or incompatible deinterlace mode "yadif2x" for packed format
QObject::~QObject: Timers cannot be stopped from another thread
And here's the log of VLC 3.0.16, i.e. the version, which contains the bug already:
Code:
[000055a152f0b570] main libvlc: VLC is being executed with the standard Interface. Use 'cvlc', to run VLC without interface.
[00007fee80000c40] main input error: Invalid url passed to the "input-slave" option
[00007fee6409ccd0] deinterlace filter error: unknown or incompatible deinterlace mode "yadif2x" for packed format
QObject::~QObject: Timers cannot be stopped from another thread
For both of these logs I was using the very same code as in my opening post.
Are you, or anybody else here, by any chance, able to transfer the code from my opening post into something, one of your suggested players can handle?
Because sorry, I can't, unfortunately.
