MythTV 31 (well it's embedded FFmpeg
variant) requires a newer version of libvpx
than EL7 ships with.  Individuals can
choose to build/use a later libvpx for
their own use (with some specific
caveats about potentially breaking some
other things), but that is not something
that can be done by RPMFusion directly.
And a possible alternative of one of
the RPMFusion MythTV packagers
doing the development and creating
a large patch to create an entirely new
embedded libvpx instantiation inside
the MythTV package itself is something
no one seems likely to even consider.

As Richard mentioned early in this
thread, EL7 libraries and functions,
while still working well for apps
developed in the same time-frame
of EL7 release of 6 years ago, is
simply too old for much modern
software.

One should consider moving to
CentOS 8, or Fedora, or, perhaps,
creating container images or VM
instances of a more recent OS if
one needs to continue to run a
base OS of EL7 for other reasons.
