[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 6178"] Almost everything in Media Portal is Windows specific (think DirectX). It would frankly be easier to write something from scratch rather than "port" Media Portal. If polish is all you desire, I would suggest theming the already very nice MythTV product. [url]http://www.mythtv.org/modules.php?name=MythFeatures[/url] Note that I am writing this response from a Linux machine, which is my primary development environment. So I'm far from biased. However, right now Windows is the better HTPC platform once you get beyond basic PVR functionality (and beyond Media Portal). Think ffdshow, games, driver support, existing community, etc. [/QUOTE]
