Yes it is possible to run the script at the same time as you run mythfrontend – I do so by modifying my mythfrontend shell script script and running MythPyWii using screen. In Ubuntu, open a terminal and run the following commands:
You’ll have to do this whenever you update mythfrontend. Another way to do it is to create a new script (e.g. “~/launchmyth.sh”) which contains something like this:

sudo apt-get install screen; sudo gedit /usr/bin/mythfrontend
Then I add to the first blank line (line 4 for me):

You’ll have to do this whenever you update mythfrontend. Another way to do it is to create a new script (e.g. “~/launchmyth.sh”) which contains something like this:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/screen -d -m /usr/bin/python /home/crayzee/Desktop/myth_py_wii.py
/usr/bin/mythfrontend
And then run that instead of “mythfrontend” (e.g. “bash ~/launchmyth.sh”).
