I'm running a Mac OS X machine with an ATI Radeon Mobility 9000. I  
have a RCA/S-Video out dongle and I've had no problems with my TV- 
Out. But, truth be told, TV-Out varies between laptops and video  
cards. Unless your TV-Out is classified as a separate adapter, you  
shouldn't have any more problems with MythTV used with TV-Out versus  
any other output.
