Definitely clean those out.  Old plugins--and any old library 
versions/files--can cause big problems if left around.  So, in addition 
to cleaning out /usr/{,local/}lib/mythtv/plugins, also clean out 
/usr/{,local/}lib/libmyth* and /usr/{,local/}lib/mythtv/filters.  If 
nothing else, it's good for maintenance, but it may just fix the issue 
you're seeing.
