MythTV should work with every significant window manager a user might want to run. Just like compiz should work with every significant application a user might want to run.
<br><br>Your solution to kill compiz before starting Mythfrontend wont work. I have multiple desktops and I often leave Mythfrontend running on one while I do stuff on the other desktops. When I want to watch TV I simply switch back to the MythTV desktop.
