What HTPC software would you recommend. I've read about - XP Media Center, Cinemar MainLooby 2, Meedio, Proximas Girder, TVedia, MediaPortal, SageTV, and SnapStream.
Thanks,

I use Showshifter (http://www.showshifter.com). I only looked at Showshifter and Snapstream (oh and MythTV on a Linux box). I wasn't over impressed with the snapstream interface. I can't remember what aspect I didn't like (it was about a year ago) but Showshifter is made by a British company, which may have had some bearing on the decisions.
UPDATE: I've remembered what it was. I wanted one place to go to watch dvds, record TV and play cd's/mp3s. Showshifter has a Jukebox which snapstream does not, and it is probably my most used aspect of it. -
MainLobby for use interface. DVDLobby for selection of DVDs. MusicLobby for selection of MP3s. XMLobby for satellite radio. WebLobby for viewing HS webpages within MainLobby.
Zoom Player w/ WinDVD5 codecs w/ ffdshow
Dscaler5
ATI TV (for watching non DVD via ATI 9800 AIW graphics card)
Hauppauge WinTV2000 (for TV viewing w/ PVR350)
DVDShrink and MainLobby DVDRipper for DVD backup
MainLobby CDRipper for CD mp3 backup
MediaCenter 11 beta for MP3 playback (with MusicLobby).
All that comes to mind...Comment
