few weeks). You can currently watch and delete recordings, and watch and<br>
record livetv. There is no epg, commskip, or any other advanced feature yet.<br>
But it's dead simple to setup and use. Simply add new new Video source with<br>
the path:<br>
<br>
myth://<a href="mailto:dbusername%3Adbpassword@192.168.1.1" target="_blank">dbusername:dbpassword@192.168.1.1</a><br>
<br>
dbusername and dbpassword are of course the username and password for your<br>
mythtv database, and the ip is the ip of your backend.<br>
<br>
The latest T3CH XBMC svn build has this myth support working. You can<br>
download it here: <a href="http://t3ch.yi.se/" target="_blank">http://t3ch.yi.se/</a><br>
<br>
It currently doesn't completely replace the need for a frontend, but for<br>
those of us that use our Xbox for just casual watching, its an interesting<br>
alternative.<br>

You can download precompiled packages at <a href="http://www.osxbmc.com/">http://www.osxbmc.com/</a>. I haven't tried it with my MythTV box yet but the previous builds I tried worked pretty well. I've got XBMC running on my MythTV box running Ubuntu 7.10 but I can't get sound or fullscreen to work just yet.<br>
