Rand Al Thors AEON Mod is probably the best to date.I agree 100% For XBMC to compete fully with, for example , Vista MCE it needs PVR capabilities (its already better at everything else) and the mythtv functionality currently is a great start on this but to look really professional it needs support built in to the skin.

It's already something that's been added to XBMC, but just very few if any skins have added support for it as of yet. Unless I'm misunderstanding this myself.timdog82001 Yes you are correct. Basic mythtv live tv functionality is already in place and I believe that improving this and adding epg is a google summer of code project. All that is really required from the skin is to have the option of a Livetv button on the home page which goes to a screen which is customised for the TV sources and show channel icons, channel name, currently showing etc. As mentioned below Rand Al Thor has made a mod for AEON that does this and I'm hacking away at xTV . Just think it would be a shame if was not included in a project like this wich seems to have such great potential.
