in the setup screens for MythVideo, I can get MPlayer to start using:

I'm pretty sure you don't want to use the "open" command for this. This basically just sends a command to the Finder to launch the app, which isn't what you want.
Try calling the app directly, by using "/Applications/MPlayer.app/Contents/MacOS/MPlayer ..." instead. (Double-check that that's the right path in the Terminal.) I don't actually use mythvideo, though, so I'm probably not the best person to answer this question. ;)
2) i don't have a TV tuner card of any kind right now. not interested in it at the moment. how does that impact the fact that my backend is 0.16 and my MacMyth frontend is not?
The 0.16 backend and CVS frontend will refuse to talk to each other, but since you're not using the TV functionality, that should not matter. In fact, you don't need a backend running at all if you're only using the video and music functions. You need the database up and running, but the backend is superfluous.
The CVS frontend will upgrade the database schema, which could cause the 0.16 backend to fail or corrupt your data if you try to actually use it, so it's probably best to shut down the backend entirely. If you don't use the TV functions, you won't miss it.
