MythDora is a specialized Linux distribution based on Fedora Core 6 and MythTV 0.20-1. Like KnoppMyth, MythDora is designed to simplify the installation of MythTV on a home theatre PC. Unlike KnoppMyth, however, it does not run as a Live CD. The distribution is installed on the computer in order to run.

In addition to MythTV and its plugins, Mythdora includes extra Linux packages that are necessary for MythTV to run, and drivers for hardware commonly encountered in machines intended to run MythTV. Also included in Mythdora are several video game emulators, and extra tools and scripts. These aid with the initial configuration of the system and allow the user to perform such tasks as rebooting the machine and backing up program data, directly through the MythTV interface.
