cypher_soundz Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 To my knowledge it’s only for Linux (unless you want to run a front end for windows, which requires it set up on Linux anyway) but there are a few PVR programs similar for windows, for a pretty good list see: http://www.tucows.com/pvr95_default.html (Sage and ChrisTV are two good ones that come to mind)Regardscyph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cypher_soundz Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 No, some are shareware (the ones I mentioned) and I’m not sure about the other ones. I’m trying to recall some of the free ones, but I haven’t used them for a while, if I remember the names I will post them here Regardscyph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigeratiPrime Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Media Portal is OPEN SOURCE! http://mediaportal.sourceforge.net/TIP: Site navigation is hard to spot, its near the top left of the page)Its only 18.5MB and uses an MSI Installer, so Unattended should be no problem.Screenshots (MCE Theme): http://mediaportal.sourceforge.net/ssmce.htmlMedia Portal turns your PC in a very advanced Multi MediaCenter / HTPC.It allows you to listen to your favorite music & radio, watch your video's and DVD's, view, schedule and record live TV and much more. You get Media Portal for free/nothing/nada/noppes and best of all it is opensource.
