If you are not familiar with MacPorts, start simple and build the port in phases.

https://trac.macports.org/wiki/CommittersTipsAndTricks#TestingPortPhases
http://guide.macports.org/#reference.phases

You can work on anywhere convienent if you execute the port commands from within the directory.
Create a directory somewhere named MythTV:
$ mkdir ~/Desktop/MythTV
$ cd ~/Desktop/MythTV
$ touch Portfile

Edit Portfile adding  items 1 thru 13 here:
http://guide.macports.org/#development.introduction

Then test the fetch phase:
$ sudo port -v fetch

Continue on to patch etc...
