copy library.xml from /usr/share/mythtv/themes/defaultmenu/library.xml to
~/.mythtv
add a stanza to the ~/.mythtv/library.xml file as follows with your editor:
<button>
<type>XBMC</type>
<text>XBMC</text>
<description>Launch XBMC</description>
<action>EXEC /usr/bin/xbmc</action>
</button>
Simply use the myth menuing system to go to XBMC. Exit XBMC and you are
back to myth.
