Hi all,

Apologies if I'm jumping before asking here but I have done some initial research and I would like to know i what I want to do is possible before doing the dirty work...

I have XBMC installed and running beautifully. Unfortunately it was intended to be a temporary install until I got Media Portal working. I chose MP for its ability to provide a Tivo style functionality as well. I didn't think XBMC could do this until I stumbled across a thread detailing Mythbox (which I have now lost )

So I checked out MythTV for XBMC and then had a look at the MythTV website and well frankly I'm very daunted. I shouldn't be as I have used Lnux extensively before but I'd like anyone who can point me in a good direction to get started on installing and getting it all working on one machine under XP. I guess this all hinges on been able to install and run MythTV on a virtual machine and having that work with XBMC.

Is this possible? Has anyone done it before? Sorry if this is a bit all over the shop..I'm in desperate need of sleep so if anyone replies I will gladly clarify after a few hours of shut-eye.

Thanks for any assistance in advance
