Now that the Xbox 360 is out you've got
to find something to do with your old 2001-style Xbox. You can either give it to the ungrateful neighbor kids, or you
can put it to better use by turning it into a PVR. Xbox Resource Center has a slick
guide
to getting MythTV, the open source PVR software, running on your big black box. Of course, the Xbox has neither a TV
tuner nor the horsepower to encode video at a reasonable rate, so you're actually going to set it up as a front-end to a
copy of MythTV running on your tuner-equipped PC. It's fairly straightforward, but will get you up to your elbows in
Linux terminals and assumes you already have a mod chip in your Xbox, but doesn't everybody?

The point is, XBMC doesn't turn on your tuner for you and stream live tv automatically like a mythtv backend can.

I don't see the point. Why not just install and use XBMC? XBMC can read off of a Samba share, so use that and XBMC to watch the stuff you have recorded and you can also use XBMC for all kinds of other stuff like playing movies and games, movie trailers from apple.com, etc. etc.
