I know. It's for the HVR-3000's satellite demux.

See above :)

Myth itself is quite stable, but Mythbuntu had some issues with the initial 
8.04a2 release -- mostly with VNC and setting up the Myth transcoding daemon 
('mkdir /var/lib/mythdvd/temp; chmod 777 /var/lib/mythdvd/temp' as root fixed 
it for me). The LIRC config files for the Nova-T500's remote are a bit 
mangled, and some buttons don't work by default.

Other than that, ripping DVDs to MPEG files and playing them back results in 
issues with A/V sync; switching the player to "default player" in File Types 
seems to have cured that.

Stability-wise, it puts MediaPortal to shame. Feature-wise, it's got 
everything I need. Once I get the Nova-T500 to behave itself, and MythTV to 
hibernate (or even shut down completely) and set an ACPI wakeup timer, I'll 
consider the project 'done' :)
