I can't make out if you were able to play the captured file using mplayer...If
you didn't, some error output would be helpful. If it did work, make sure you
have selected the correct video card in mythtv-setup (mythtv-setup >> capture
cards. Try deleting all and then re-adding, making sure they are correct.)
