I am, but the mythtv source code base is really difficult to understand.
There is no separation between frontend code and backend code, so it
is difficult to work out if a particular section of source code is
executed at the backend or the frontend. Is there a wiki page that
explains the architecture of the code a bit.

Something along the lines of:
For Recording:
Method X reads the media stream from the DVB card, it then sends it to
method Y which stores it on the HD.
For Playback:
Method X reads the media stream from the HD, it then sends it to
method Y which sends it over the network to the frontend.
