Modulating for multiple frontends is good except for the fact that they'll
all display the same thing, unless you
were able to modulate to several different channels, and somehow run
multiple frontend processes on that one machine
and have them differentiate properly.  Assuming that can't work, the
advantage of multiple lightweight frontend machines is they independently
control the backend.

This is what I want to do. I want to be able to recorded a show on my Mythtv
box (basement) and play it back to my living room tv. Is this possible with
Mythtv? I have WinTV-GO-FM card currently but looking to upgrade to
WinTV-PVR-350. The second question I have is how hard is it go get the PVR
350 up and running if I already have Mythtv working with my current WinTV
card? 

 
What I am planning on doing is taking the output of the video card into a
channel modulator, along with an IR repeater.  This will allow me to relay
remote commands from the living room and all I need to do is tune the TV to
the "MythTV channel".  Using this approach, with enough remotes and IR
repeaters, you could have Myth on every TV.  No need for separate frontends
and no need for a noisy computer nearby.
