    Haven't used it myself but from what I read of those that have it is pretty poor, unstable & not a patch on MythTV or even Win MCE.

    Holy Linux propoganda Batman.

    Looks OK, but I mean some of the ways it bitches about MCE are far beyond over exaggerated.

    This was discussed a couples of times eariler.

    The video spanks of nerdy linux fanboyism TBH. Dont get me wrong, im pretty fond of linux myself and use/implement MythTV, but the video is whoefully inaccurate and dilusional with regards to ease of setup and also Windows MCE' features and strengths.

    LinuxMCE is a hack\crossbreed of MythTV and Pluto. Its nowhere near as stable as the video would have you believe and is a nightmare for most people to setup.

    My advice would be either use MythTV or Pluto (which contains mythTV) and avoid LinuxMCE until it has more substance.
