And there's your problem. You're sitting at 1.0pre7, which is over a
year old now. The latest version is 1.0pre8, and as the info page
(http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/news.html) says:

support for some more MythTV NUV files

So, grab thy source and compile (Or grab one of the binary
distributions from
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/projects.html#unofficial_packages if
you don't want to wade into compiling)
