The AppleTV is of no use as a frontend or backend for
MythTV. It has insufficient memory to properly run either,
much less both at the same time. It has too little
processor for HD video decoding, and no driver support for
access to the DSP. It has only one eSATA port for storage,
and no support for USB tuners.<br>

Doesn't the original AppleTV only have 256MB? As for "too
little processor", do you mean the CPU and we wouldn't have
access to the GPU? Because the GPU can do at least 720p.<br>

Both versions of the AppleTV only have 256MB of memory, and neither
has enough to run the frontend well at HD resolutions.<br>
