You _should_ be able to just use mythtv as the player for these..

"mythtv [filename]" should be able to play back any .mpg file, which these 
are.  Seeking forward to places that the player hasn't seen yet will be 
slightly slower, because it hasn't got a seektable in the database, but 
everything should work.
