Thanks Larry and Alex, after looking at the output I'm wondering if the
command is further inappropriate, in that I'm looking for memory leak
during a recording, not a playback:

 http://paste.ubuntu.com/8207304/

Maybe the command should have "recording" substituted for "playback"?

 valgrind --leak-check=full --error-limit=no --show-reachable=yes
--log-file=/tmp/vg.out     /usr/bin/mythfrontend -v general,playback,libav
--loglevel=debug --quiet --logpath=/tmp
