Thanks for the suggestions. I tried adding the path to the ld.so.conf and running ldconfig -v as you asked. Here is a snippet of the output:

/usr/local/lib64/mythtv/filters:
	libforce.so -> libforce.so
	libinvert.so -> libinvert.so
	libonefield.so -> libonefield.so
	libcrop.so -> libcrop.so
	libpostprocess.so -> libpostprocess.so
	libdenoise3d.so -> libdenoise3d.so
	libconvert.so -> libconvert.so
	libquickdnr.so -> libquickdnr.so
	libivtc.so -> libivtc.so
	libbobdeint.so -> libbobdeint.so
	libadjust.so -> libadjust.so
	libkerneldeint.so -> libkerneldeint.so
	liblinearblend.so -> liblinearblend.so

Unfortunately, the message still appears in the fontend log and deinterlacing does not work (the interlacing is very visible on the LCD TV I have.

Do you have any other ideas? Maybe I should file this as a bug?
