Ok, my test machine has a Hauppauge PVR-350 card (connected tgo analog
cable), is using the pvrxxx driver:
root@kg-quiet# portversion -v | grep pvr
pvrxxx-09042008             <  needs updating (port has 20060822_1) 

and runs FreeBSD 7.2-stable / amd64:
root@kg-quiet# uname -a
FreeBSD kg-quiet.kg4.no 7.2-STABLE FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE #6: Sat May 30 16:13:13 CEST 2009     root@kg-quiet.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/QUIET  amd64

1) the port compiles and installs without problems (qt4 takes a loong tine to compile on this machine,
     but that is no fault).
2) mythtv-setup works
- minor issue with gui: the clock in the lower right hand corner has the minutes off screen; it is too far right
3) mythfilldatabase core dumps if mythbackend is not running, but works ok if mythbackend is running
3) mythfrontend
- minor issue with gui: the clock in the lower right hand corner has the minutes off screen; it is too far right
- almost everything works, except for actual TV viewing (LiveTV)
(ok, I haven't tried scheduled recording yet - don't know if they work, I suspect they don't)
When I select "Watch TV" It tries for a while, then the backend crashes. The mythbackend log says this:

4) I have made an alternative /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mythbackend (attached).
     It would be nice if the mythtv port could use that. My script allows you to use
     a log file for the backend.
