Michael, I'm being careful as I don't want to hurt my kid's XBox but apparently Dynebolics has a LiveCD that boots on XBox. I'm downloading it and intended to try booting it today or tomorrow and see what happens. If I could use that for playing PVR recorded video it would be great as the thing is always attached to the TV anyway.
I'll report back if someone else doesn't chime in first.
