If you try mplayer with -v option (verbose mode), it will eventually say
(among other things):

Parsing playlist

I don't get the same error messages as you:

mplayer -v http://www.cbc.ca/fifth/lies/video.html | grep -i 'parsing playlist'
mplayer: could not connect to socket
mplayer: No such file or directory
Failed to open LIRC support. You will not be able to use your remote control.
Couldn't resolve name for AF_INET6: www.cbc.ca

If I were you, I'd complain to the cbc.ca webmaster and tell him to fix it.
