I virtualized my BE to a VMWare VM running on ESXi a while back and am very
happy with the results. I use an HDHomeRun. I've been thinking about
putting an STB back into the mix because MAVTV HD is encrypted and crashes
my backend when I try tuning to it, so I may have some complaints in the
future when I try to get USB pass-through working. But I would highly
recommend a virtualized backend.

Has anybody successfully put a backend in a container? I tried getting it
working in Docker a few months ago without much success.
