XMBC – это бесплатный медиаплеер и менеджер мультимедиа, который может выступать в роли домашнего мультимедийного центра. Из за своей бесплатности, и поддержки почти всех популярных операционных систем, есть версии для Windows, Mac и Linux, XMBC может стать хорошим вариантом при выборе программного обеспечения для управления мультимедийным контентом.
Все меню системы состоит из 6 пунктов: система, погода, фотографии, видео, музыка, программы. Изначально система работает на английском языке, но в настройках есть русский и украинский языки, поэтому особых проблем при использовании возникнуть не должно. XMBC имеет приятный интерфейс, и довольно богатый набор настроек. Для комфортного использования, как мультимедийного центра, желательно иметь пульт дистанционного управления. Программа поддерживает работу с сетью, поэтому можно крутить ролики или музыку даже на других ПК.
ОС: Windows XP, Vista, 7 (32-bit / 64-bit).

Скачать программу XBMC Media Center 11.0 Final (50,35 МБ):
За 3 года перепробовав кучу оболочек могу рекомендовать XBMC как полноценный домашний кинотеатр. Читает все и вся. Онлайн трансляции радио и ТВ легко. За все время пользования возникло только два вопроса: как правильно пишется мой город для погоды и танцы с бубном по прикручиванию нестандартного пульта ДУ. Пользовал в связке с финасным сервером и 32х дюймовым теликом. Звук слушал по оптике и просто 5+1. Можно ставить на диск или просто работать с флехи. Сразу ставить навороченный скин не стоит.
Сам себя дополню - здесь версия для винды, а на офсайте есть лайвсд (не реклама!)
Прикольная программа
Опиши..
Я тоже такие коменты могу писать.
