> Jan, thanks for your response.  Let me clarify the setup.  I have one physical machine.  myth, front and backend, is running inside a virtual machine on that machine.  The goal is to get the frontend to display recordings on the screen and speakers controlled by the (host) physical machine.  There's no TV, and no network traffic that leaves the physical machine.

I think you'll find that "very difficult".
One thought that does come to mind would be to use whatever passthrough capabilities the VM manager has to make a display adapter directly available to the virtual machine. How hard that would be in practice I have no idea - I've never done it.
