Depends on what you want to be able to do on the clients but
multimedia/xbmc also fits in some cases. MythTV can be an UPnP server
and XBMC is a very good UPnP client. There is also an mythtv plugin for
XBMC but the version in ports only supports mythtv <= 0.23. But there is
also an xbmc-devel port available. [1]

MythTV is currently only verified to work with webcamd and several USB
devices. So I'm waiting for your results and hope it just works.
