Some tweaking will probably be required.  However, since the ivtv and
myth developers seem to be an incestuous bunch (each using the other's
works), I'm confident it will get worked out as well as the hardware
allows.

FYI, I got my PVR 350 today.  Family/holiday stuff got in the way so I
haven't finished setup and testing yet.  However, the preliminary
results are that it's a tremendous improvement for watching hockey and
backetball.  Football gets checked out tomorrow.  I can't say yet if
it's as good or better than a TiVo, but if it isn't, it's pretty
close.
