The good news is that I may have found a fix for my XBMC. I'll have to try it tomorrow.
The bad news is that I tried to tweak the antenna in the attic to receive OTA HD signals. Not only would this allow me to get all local HD content, but I could then cancel the "locals package" from DirecTV. Using my trusty Garmin eTrex Vista, I pointed the antenna to 318°, but there's another tower at 321°. I get decent signal for half the channels, but very weak for the other half. Another variable is that I'm running over 50' of coax, which severely degrades the signal. So either I rethink my antenna distribution or get an amp for the line.
With the Powerball at 180 million, I think I'll bulldoze the house ... after I win.
