It seem it would accept Theora codec stream in some ogg file type but not in ogv.

Example:

It would played the video.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Video_xo.ogv

For the above 2 link it will not show the video except vorbis codec audio.

Digging into the shipping mplayer binaries and execute it in terminal.
The included MPlayer binaries would not detect the theora video stream.
While if using MacPort based MPlayer binaries it would detect the Theora video stream.
