aptitude says downgrading from 1:1.0.rc2svn20090316-0.1 to
1.0~rc3+svn20090405-1, but this is a upgrade
I don't known if this is a issue with apt/aptitude or with mplayer / libav*
versions nomenclature
Thank you!

No, it's a downgrade. 1.0.rc2 is greater than 1.0~rc3 (note the "~").
Similarly, 0.5.svn is greater than 0.5+svn. You can use
dpkg --compare-versions to check this:
$ dpkg --compare-versions 4:0.5.svn20090330-0.0 gt 4:0.5+svn20090706-2 && echo
true || echo false
true
$ dpkg --compare-versions 1:1.0.rc2svn20090316-0.1 gt 1.0~rc3+svn20090405-1 &&
echo true || echo false
true
