There's a major new release of the FOSS project LinuxMCE that includes from MythTV for whole-house HD PVR, plsu movie, music and photo server, integrated telephony and smarthome. All a/v source devices, DVD jukeboxes, and online media are shared through the home so you can put all your a/v gear in a rack in one room, with only thin clients in the rest of the rooms. It includes a gyro-controlled UI that lets you navigate long lists of media and the TV's EPG by waving, like a Wii, for fast, smooth control. Also wave to scan through your media and adjust volume and lights. Watch a demo walkthrough on Google Video (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2176025602905109829) or download the video in high-def at linuxmce.org (http://linuxmce.org) . Installation is 25 minutes and every step is shown starting with a clean PC. |
