I want to run my PVR backend server on...

You can run the PVR backend server on one of your existing XBMC installs, or on its own.

Linux

Name DVB ATSC / QAM ISDB DTMB CableCard (US) IPTV Recording TimeShift Radio
Tvheadend ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
VDR ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Mac OS X

Name DVB ATSC / QAM ISDB DTMB CableCard (US) IPTV Recording TimeShift Radio
MythTV ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Windows

Raspberry Pi

The Raspberry Pi is technically just a embedded linux platform, but it's low price and features make it perfect for a PVR backend. In addition to this, since a lot of people will hopefully be using R-Pi's as backends, it will make it easier to streamline setup guides and provide help due to most of the hardware being the same for everyone.

Name DVB ATSC / QAM ISDB DTMB CableCard (US) IPTV Recording TimeShift Radio
Tvheadend ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
VDR ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Other

Name DVB ATSC / QAM ISDB DTMB CableCard (US) IPTV Recording TimeShift Radio
VU+ for Enigma2 based settop boxes (Dreambox / VU+) [1] ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
DVBLink for Synology NAS ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Tvheadend for ARM Linux (Pogo Plug, Dockstar, etc) ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Notes

  1. VU+ (and other Enigma2 set-top boxes) aren't actually software you install, but rather a PVR/DVR set-top box itself that can interface with XBMC. If you have a Dreambox, VU+, or other Eminga2 box, this is the option you will want to use.
