[mythtv-users] MythTV on an Xbox

[Sean Goodpasture]

You might google for xbox softmod or something along those lines.  I have
much greater success using Splinter Cell with a saved game on memory card
that I put there using a gameshark device.  Splinter Cell is like $3 at
Gamestop, so it might be worth it to check that out.
