MythTV was very tightly integrated into LinuxMCE. However, with changes of MythTV outside of our reach, and the move of a lot of users in the US away from broadcasted TV to Netflix and stuff, people/devs moved away from MythTV. In Europe, VDR was always a good contender, but never was, nor is, as tightly integrated into LinuxMCE.
*I* am using VDR on a daily base, and if it doesn't work, SWMBO is _very_ upset, so I try to keep it going
- One thing about VDR that can cause issues for people with limited resources is, that it never was designed in a client/server fashion, it is not very nice in disconnecting from tuners. I run a 4x DVB-S2 system, have a core and a single used MD and things are good, but even I do sometimes have an issue of not being able to switch to a channel due to ongoing recordings. Yes, I do record too much :*)
