If `mythffplay` doesn't work, the best option would be to disable it, or
just simply not use it. MythTV's diagnostic playback tool is
`mythavtest`. We added `mythffmpeg` to give a static copy of the ffmpeg
transcoding utility for scripts to use, built off MythTV's internal
snapshot of the ffmpeg libraries. `mythffplay` gets compiled for no
reason other than we could.
