IMHO the Mac mini is an excellent machine for the living room.
- It is so silent you can hardly hear it.
- It looks good and does not take up a lot of space.
- It has a built-in DVD ROM.
- It runs 2 UNIXes - MacOS X and Linux.
- It has a DVI output which provides perfect picture quality with a DLP beamer or a flat panel display.
So I am thinking of using one instead of my current diskless VDR client (an MSI hetis barebone).
Of course the Mac mini does not have a PCI slot, so I will not be able to put in a DVB card.
Would the Xine plugin be a good solution for such a system? Has anyone tried it on a Mac running Linux?
TIA for any info,
Sounds like a great idea! Found this with some googling http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/power/library/pa-madmac1/?ca=dgr-lnxw0...
