I have an HDHomerun Prime [model that allows 2 cablecards]
MCE has worked flawlessly in tuning and recording channels
I'm running openELEC 3.0RC4
I've tried:
-TVHeadend: Could never configure the prime
- NextPVR: Too many "tuner not available" error messages
-MythBuntu: Suddenly getting buffering on all my HD channels
I'd like to stay on openELEC or xbmcbuntu but cannot get reliable PVR performance (I'm mainly watching live tv, don't really need time shifting)
So, what works for you? I've spent too many weekends (it seems) trying to get this to work

Mythtv works well with the prime. Join the mythtv-users mailing list plenty of help there.

Streaming via UPNP works fairly well, however, without any guide data, it's just doesn't work for me
The prime and all my other boxes are all connected to the same gig switch - not sure what's up with this buffering

Agree with nickr, I'm using mythtv with Prime(Fios cablecard) and it works great. Took a little to get the setups right, but well worth it. Used all the message boards available for tips

Another one using the Prime (3 tuner CableCard version) with MythTV. I have my Myth box on another machine and connect to it through the addon. I've never tried setting both Myth and XBMC up on the same box. Myth does take some work, and quite a bit of digging for info to get set up really well.
