Building a Linux Home Media Center

Posted by Zonk on from the you-needed-a-project-this-weekend dept.

RomanianClimber writes "Tom Lynema assembles an Ubuntu-based Linux home media center. 'Like a lot of people nowadays, I have a growing collection of digital media. My digital media is stored on a home Linux server. Most of the digital media players available today do not support protocols to connect to a Linux server, which make them unsuitable for my use. I realized the best way to connect my digital media library with my home theatre was to build my own Linux home media center (LHMC).'"

  1. Prostitute Schedule for January 13 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll
    Folks, check out the updated prostitute schedule for January 13 at the Mitchell Brother's O'Farrell Theater (MBOT) in San Francisco. The MBOT is the most convenient way for you to buy a blow job, hand job, and full service (i.e. vaginal sexual intercourse).

    I kid you not.

    Forget about 'Open-Source' (or 'Open-Sores', as my coworkers like to call it) DVR implementations.

    They are unstable, difficult to install, and just a plain waste of time.

    Read why "Windows XP Mediac Center Edition is King."
