No you would not.  MythTV does not use mplayer, it uses an internal player,
to which I plan to be adding VAAPI support RealSoonNow (TM).  In the context
of MythTV, mplayer is not required for anything but (IIRC) playback of VCDs.
 It may be useful as a stop-gap solution while I work on the frontend code,
but it is not required.

Just setting things straight.
