there was a message posted a few pages back describing how to make live tv work. if you want the details, look back but a short recap is to adjust your xbmc cache settings smaller (i use 1mb for lan video cache) and fiddle with the min buffer size setting in xbmcmythtv (i use 750000 bytes).
your access denied problem is most likely a problem with your smb share configuration or path prefixes if you don't use smb. the settings screen only tests myth tv and mysql connections at the moment.
affini: the plan is to provide myth tv functionality natively through the xbmc interface. however, i don't see it doing everything that the myth frontend can do for various reasons - myth is changing all the time so we play catchup; features that are of high interest to the people working on it get implemented; xbmc is a bit limiting in what can be done through python; xbmc can do a lot of what myth provides (e.g. weather, music playback, video playback, dvd playback, add on emulators, etc.).
