Thanks RC, but after downloading the patch you linked to, it was also for an
older version of MPLayer:

diff -ru MPlayer-0.90/libmpcodecs/native/nuppelvideo.c
MPlayer-0.90+mdz/libmpcodecs/native/nuppelvideo.c

Thanks again for the help.  I'll see if the MythTV user's group can offer me
some assistance.
