Hi, newbie to this forum
I currently have a home built PC that I store all the usual multi media stuff on. Photo's, Movies, music etc. I'm getting a plasma TV and want to either use it, or my old laptop as an AV jukebox.
I have sky+ so all my recording needs are ok (and I have a hardware mpeg2 encoder on the odd occasion that I want to record to disc).
What I'm after is some software that will scan the local discs for multi media files, including any shared or external drives, which I can then control from a remote. Efectively I'm looking for MCE without having to have a specific spec pc, and without the need for tuners for recording.
Anything come to mind or is MCE the way forward
