I thought I had tried xine earlier. Guess not correctly as it works now. xine -playlist http://byutv.org/streaming/byutv250b.asx
xine is the key and it appears that Amarok is using it in this case (or at least the xine libs). Now to figure out how to stream the video to save/transcode for later. Gonna read up on that and maybe write a mythtv plugin (although I am sure there are such already to adapt...). Will want to correlate from the schedule on the web.... The adventure continues. Anyone know if there are any python bindings to the xine libraries? I see pyxine but it looks like a defunct project. Thanks!

That'd be why you don't get the video. I can say that amarok uses a backend that you can specify. I know that xine is one choice, and I can't remember if there is another one (currently), and if there is, what it would be. Try playing the video stream through xine instead of mplayer.
