[QUOTE="ixian, post: 417613, member: 54932"] They are both very good media front ends but I still believe they serve a very different set of core users, with XBMC being for the more casual, downloader type (or open source advocates, let us not forget) and Media Portal for the serious home theater enthusiast. XBMC's strict reliance on mplayer/ffmpeg for codec support makes it a non-starter for many HT nuts, including me. But it's still an incredible piece of software, just like Media Portal. [/QUOTE]
