I use the Hauppauge Media MVP to connect to my backend. You can get them for
around 80 bucks new.
I just absolutely love it. It is the size of an old external modem and
boots off the network. Multiple systems can be upgraded in under a minute.
NO JOKE.
Just copy the upgraded boot image to the tftp directory and you are done
for all Media MVP clients.
It isn't a full Myth Frontend but plays all your shows perfectly.
The project web page is http://mvpmc.sourceforge.net
