Does anyone have any experience with XBMC (Linux) and Myth TV?

I have a XBMC setup in one room in the house where there is a TV coax in easy reach, ideally I would like to have the MythTV run on this and then pick up the TV on another XBMC I have elsewhere in the house.

Pretty happy that this will work but I need to understand what the best piece of hardware to buy is

Not that bothered about the ability to record TV, but if there is a working option that does that I would pay extra for it.

With a decent aerial feed the pinnacle pctv dongle I have is a pretty solid performer. Not sure about Linux compatibility though dude
