There are very long threads on xbmc forums about NUCs. Even the 2820
model is a good performer for video, an i5 is gonna do all you want
and more.

Having said that there are differences of course between XBMC and
Mythtv. Different playback engines of course, but importantly myth
users place more emphasis on deinterlacing - for which I don't think
you can beat nVidia.
