Lots of noise about Myth & HD lately on the list, mostly caused by me 
(sorry guys).  I use it at 1920x1080 (HDMI/DVI) with CoreAVC.
TV3 still has some issues, some CPU related in my case, and some with 
TV3 deinterlacing looking a bit seedy.  The other SD interlaced channels 
look OK.
TV1&2 are pretty good.  If you want to try, bring a fast (preferably 
Intel) CPU.  You will also most likely have to build it from source if 
you want to use CoreAVC.  If you want MythTV to be rock solid, DVB-T 
isn't for you just yet.  Having said that I've had few problems with my 
lastest build
