I had this same problem with my 350, my solution? I got a nvidia card to do 
tv-out.
Some people had suggested to fix the size in the setup of mythtv, I
never got it to work right, YMMV. I also wanted accelerated X so I
needed the card anyway.

You have to configure your lirc config file with mplayer in there also
and if you use xine like I do, then you will need to put xine in there
as well. If you have that then there is a focus issue with mplayer
search the archives there are lots of posts about it.

Use exit instead of ESC, look at the key mapping for myth on the docs
page to find out what key it is.
