[mythtv-users] XBOX Frontend

[Peter Loron]

Opinions are divided on the usefulness of an Xbox running linux as a 
front-end. Some folks (including myself) find the lack of ram makes the 
box too slow. Others find it acceptable. YMMV.

If you go that route, I think there are some disk images floating around 
(search the list archives) that could make it much quicker to get going.

You can use XMBC as a frontend solution using the xbmcmythtv script:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbmcmythtv/

Note that it is not a full frontend.
