No no no no nooo... ;)  I meant that you can have a cable box sitting
behind your MythTV and another one behind your Tivo.  The Tivo will use
its IR blaster (or serial port, if you've got it configured).  The
MythTV will use its IR blaster for its cable box (or serial port if I
can ever get the d*mned thing sniffed).  Thus, both the Tivo and the
MythTV can get channels like HBO and record shows from them.  Then from
the MythTV you can watch shows from both itself *and* the Tivo. ;)
