It would likely use a different output driver since you can't use Xv 
with the vnc session... (at least I think that is your problem)

When debugging remotely what I do is SSH into the machine on the tv, 
then start myth up like:

DISPLAY=localhost:0 gdb mythfrontend

This brings up the display on the remote machine but with gdb 
effectively on your machine with the better monitor, etc.
