Reading this thread:
cMyth MythTV addon for the PVR version of XBMC

It looks like a MythTV / OpenELEC combination could be the PVR solution I am looking for. My mandatory requirements are:

Must be Wife Friendly - Select 'TV' from the main screen, browse channels, EPG (pulled from the over-the-air embedded EPG data)
Must be able to pause, rewind, fast-forward
Must be able to record currently watched program with a single remote button press
Must be able to schedule recording of individual shows, or a series of shows, via the EPG

Now while Windows 7 Media Centre does this all 'out-of-the-box', I'm willing to put up with a bit of pain installing the MythTV backend and configuring the OpenELEC frontend (including building from source)

Is the MythTV / OpenELEC combination ready to meet my needs?

If you jump into the development thread on xbmc: thread you'll see it's progress. What are your requirements out of curiosity?
