Yes, you can user mplayer for this (like for pretty much anything
--it's the swiss knife for video processing).
mplayer -rawvideo on:w=<width>:h=<height>:fps=15:format=i420 -vo x11 \
<filename.yuv>
-vo x11 disables hardware scaling which might produce small distortions
to the image.
Press key "." to advance frame-by-frame.
Should be available from http://www.mplayerhq.hu
but there seems to be a problem with the site at the moment...
try after a few hours/days again if it doesn't work.
Or find a copy elsewhere.
