I guess its largely moot for me anyway until Gotham gets sorted out, and even then I'd be curious to see how an external player like MXPlayer handles the transcoding, since on the Ouya I had better luck with that than the default player ( I don't remember what version of XBMC I was using at the time though).
One poster much earlier in the thread had success in using the FireTV to play back live TV, in the form of a ~20ish Mbps 1080i MPEG-2 stream.
Ah thanks, that was it, glad I didn't make that up. Maybe I'll play around with the Gotham test-builds tonight to see for myself. And it needs to be Gotham, since I'm running MythTV 0.27, and the cmyth plugin that works with 0.27 only works with Gotham (I think).
