The last time I looked at the specs (launch time) it only worked with windows media center. I wish it worked with Mythtv! Sadly, youre better off waiting for the HDHomerun Prime.

Are the remote keys for Mythbox different than XBMC? I have my power key remapped to the hash (#) so I can have discrete on/off buttons. If I'm in Mythbox it doesn't work. I have to go back to the Home menu before it will go into standby.

Do you have mythtv installed on the same machine?

Ok. You need a TV tuner card in order to watch live tv with mythtv. I'd advise you to look into what the program actually is.

That's OK ...
I didn't understand that pyo files were created at mythbox's startup.
Sorry for noise

Hi fellas!
Here is my feedback:
ASUS P7H55-M
INTEL CORE i3
8 GB RAM
NVIDIA GT220 1024
SKYSTAR HD 2
Using VAAPI I can't get MythBox to work. NVIDIA VDPAU works like a charm.
The only problem so far is: channel changes are really slow. In MythTV Frontend changes takes 2-3 secs, what is pretty aceptable. However, using XBMC + MythBox it takes 10 secs or more.
I dont believe it's normal... What's your channel change time?
Thanks in advance!

My channel change time is about 5 seconds. Too slow in my opinion.
What's a bigger problem for us is the occasional blank schedule screen lockup and the stops that occur every ~8mins when watching a program as it records.

Thanks for your reply!
I would be happy if I could get 5 seconds channel changes.
Is there anything I can do to improve this performance?

Is it quicker for you in MythTV? Or is it a general problem? If the latter, the root cause may be in the DVB hardware and/or the driver.
