DumpHD has a BD+ support too so I guess its output can be piped through
mythavtest as well. I'm using it in conjunction with mplayer like:

$ dumphd --infile:/BDMV/STREAM/00000.m2ts /media/bluray | mplayer -nogui
-quiet -fs -zoom -noborder -cache 8192 -aid 4353 -vo gl -ao alsa:noblock
-lavdopts threads=2 -demuxer lavf -channels 2 -

It can be easily scripted and launched via additional menu entry in MythTV
as a workaround of course.
