I think so.  I presently change channels with a remote.  One of the 
channels is my pc.  When I'm on the pc channel, I'd like to have a small 
screen in the upper left or right corner that displays one of the other 
channels on the tv.

Recently, I purchased a Philips HDTV.  It has connections for other 
devices, such as a VCR, PC.  I connected my computer, and now can switch 
channels that I receive with a tv antenna.  When I'm on a tv channel, 
and want to bring up my computer, I switch to the PC channel.  Seems 
like I could use mythtv to have my PC display as the major, and access 
the tv channels as small screen in one of the upper corners.  My feeble 
brain can't process the idea without advice.  Any suggestions are 
greatly appreciated.  :)
