A few possibilities:

It's possible to run the Myth frontend from the monitor and
direct the TV output to the PVR350.

It's possible to run Myth frontend on both the TV and monitor.
Just don't try to watch anything from the monitor. Using the
setup menus would be no problem.

You could try using the "Relative" screen positioning option in
the X config file to make the two screens overlap. I don't know
what would actually happen - I never tried it.
