Upon further testing it appears to be a matter of playback and not 
transcoding. I rebuilt mplayer on my notebook with the mythtv patch and 
it plays the affected files just fine. I had suspected this since I 
still get the occasional stutter even on live or recorded MPEG2 streams 
from my PVR350. Unfortunately the stutters are rare and transient for 
MPEG2 so I can't give you an easy way to reproduce them other than using 
the MPEG4 sample I posted.
