XBMC USB TV tuner?

fakemail · 30-06-2010, 02:55 PM

I have tried some digging up on this but have not found anything. Does anyone know if it's possible to use a USB TV tuner / capture device on an xbox running XBMC? Obviously one of the controller sockets will have to be modified to connect a USB socket but software-wise is this possible?

It should be possible as there are USB TV capture devices out there.
I found this one which is supported by MythTV: Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-USB2 - MythTV

The same level of support should be on XBMC as it runs on linux.
