@NickRoeder yes you can view live tv in xbmc. but xbmc can't get tv from thin air, it needs to read the feed from somewhere. in my case it's tvheadend that let's me view and record live tv through satellite.
soon maybe we'll get the PVR addon for xbmc and then we'll be able set recordings within xbmc
I am trying to install XBMC Live 9.11 on my Acer Aspire Revo. I downloaded the distro from xbmc.org and loaded it onto USB stick. But when I start up my Revo it gets past the XBMC logo and then goes into a black Ubuntu command line screen.
Did you follow a guide to get XBMC Live 9.11 running on your Acer Aspire Revo? I am not at all familiar with Linux command line.

basically you just need to burn the iso to a cd, boot the cd, install to hard drive and it should be running.
but the new xbmc version is way better and it doesn't have a live cd yet.. you need to upgrade it after OR try using right away this live cd from xbmcfreaks: xbmcfreak.nl/en/xbmcfreak-livecd-10-08-svn31632/
So were you able to watch live tv in XBMC?
If so are you able to record it?
