A Media Centre allows you to hold all of your digital media like a giant jukebox, all accessable via your remote control. MythTV is probably the best Media Centre available at the moment for Digital TV. I have had it in production for over a year now and have used it every day. Many thanks to Issac Richards the maintainer and all the active developers.

in Computing > HTPC > Books - Bertolt Brecht - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brecht wanted the answer to Lenin’s question ‘Wie und was soll man lernen?’ ('How and what should we learn?'). He created an influential theory of theatre, the epic theatre, wherein a play should not cause the spectator to emotionally identify with the action before him or her, but should instead provoke rational self-reflection and a critical view of the actions on the stage. He believed that the experience of a climactic catharsis of emotion left an audience complacent. Instead, he wanted his audiences to use this critical perspective to identify social ills at work in the world and be moved to go forth from the theatre and effect change.

in Computing > HTPC > Howto - Connecting your PC to your TV
Whether you want to browse your computer on your TV screen and watch movies stored in your computer on your TV, or you want to do the opposite (like watching your favorite TV shows on your PC), this article discusses the how-to as well as the benefits and the problems of each option (and what you can do to get around them). You may also want to do both (record your favorite shows on your PC but watch them on your TV). Whichever of these you're trying to do, the intention of this article is to provide a concise explanation of how to converge your TV with your PC.
There are many different ways of connecting your PC to your TV. This article explores the many ways.

in Computing > HTPC - EPG Data Sources for Australia
Many programs have some form of Electronic Programme Guide, or EPG. They need to get the data for the guide from somewhere, and because the data comes from different sources in different geographical locations, people have separated the uses of the data from the gathering of the data. XMLTV is a format for transferring EPG data. This page lists programs that gather EPG data for Australian TV channels. Programs that use XMLTV (see description below) need to get their data from somewhere. Some companies will sell you a direct XMLTV data feed. Other people use a program known as a grabber or scraper to gather data from the web and convert it into the XMLTV format.
in Computing > HTPC - GeeXboX Project
GeeXboX is a media center software suite for personal computers, based on Linux and MPlayer, and implemented as a Live CD. As such, the system does not need to be permanently installed to a hard drive, as most modern operating systems would; instead, the computer can be rebooted with the GeeXboX CD when media playback is desired. This is a reasonable approach for who do not need media playback services while performing other tasks with the same computer, for users who wish to repurpose older computers as media centers, and for those seeking a free alternative to Windows XP Media Center Edition.
