I already have debain linux/vdr setup. 64 bit on my system and 32 on my dads. I don't want to rip it all out and start over with another flavor of linux.Then XBMC will help you ;) Here is one way to integrate VDR and XBMC using streamdev plugin - http://blog.mymediasystem.net/avchd/xbmc-on-karmic-with-vdpau-and-vdr/ There is also another way without streamdev, which is better as people talk.
And then, how does it related to the OP question ?

Can it be done without installing a desktop? http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=139868
To my understanding, yes and no, depends on what you understand to be a desktop. You need X for it and something to launch it. (Flash interface) + Flashplayer (i believe Gnash can't do it yet ?)
The XBMC could be your "Desktop" and i believe, what the answers before trying you to say is you could launch Hulu Desktop from within XBMC (not proven as i can't - neither XBMC here yet, nor can i use hulu) So whatever else, you need X and display X on your TV.
