Hi people,<br>
I'm a longtime mythtv user with a combined backend/frontend connected<br>
to my TV in the lounge.<br>
About a year ago I bought and appletv2 and I've been using that<br>
(jailbroken with XBMC installed) to access most of the media on my<br>
mythbox from a 2nd tv.<br>
One of the things that I find really handy with XBMC are the plugins<br>
that let me watch various catch up tv services (ABC iview in<br>
Australia, etc). I'd like to get those on the combined<br>
backend/frontend. Has anyone set up a simple way to switch between<br>
XBMC and myth </blockquote><div><br>copy library.xml from /usr/share/mythtv/themes/defaultmenu/library.xml to ~/.mythtv<br><br>add a stanza to the ~/.mythtv/library.xml file as follows with your editor:<br><br> <button><br>

(using a remote, there's no keyboard on this machine) or<br>
access XBMC plugins or the catchup TV via myth?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
