Well I dont want to sound glib, but for me to go from myth on crt to myth on tv was simply a matter of running the (proprietary) ati video card configurator to switch from CRT only to TV/CRT. Then there was a simple matter of configuring MythTV's interface to taste.
this would be exactly what I would expect to do for any app and I would be searching for information on this not as "TV Out for mythtv" but "TV Out for linux". Mythtv is flexible enough to allow you to configure it for whatever situation your video cards limitations have left you with.
The problem is TV OUT is a hardware specific problem. Infrared support is a hardware specific problem. Unless you plan on buying the same hardware as the reviewer you are going to have to invent your own experience. Your alternative is investigating each of the issues seperately. Mythtv Howto, TV Out with linux and GraphicsCardModel Howto, lirc and IRDevice howto.
