Hmmm Media Portal looks rather nice, I`m going to check that out.

Spare PC I can muster for the weekend:

SilverPower 400W SP-400P1B (passive)

ASRock K7VT4A Pro

AMD Athlon 2600+ (Can run as a 2800+ with no effort)

1G (only has 2 slots iirc, could stretch 1.5G, but would rather 1G)

Gigabyte 6600 GT *vivo *128m (silentpipe)

Creative Soundblaster 5.1 Live! (with drive & remote - very probably not usable for MP menu`ing)

Drive space of any size, and multiple sizes

Sony DW-Q30a DVD/RW

.. and a choice of 3 WinTV cards, all analogue, based on the 878:

1)FM/TV Tuner, Line in & out (stereo), DTV/S-Vid input, and IR (44354 Rev C221) PAL - B/G - I (regular rf aerial sockets)

2)FM/TV Tuner, Line in & out (stereo), DTV/S-Vid input, and IR (44354 Rev C242) PAL - B/G - I (composite looking rf aerial sockets)

3)FM/TV Tuner, Line in & out (stereo), DTV/S-Vid input, AV composite out (61334 Rev B2) PAL - BG/I (regular rf aerial sockets)

.. or all 3 ?

Wanna see how it handles my music collection, DVDs, DVDs I`ve converted, pics/photos, recording TV for a laugh (all the cards use SoftPVR afaik, not sure of 61334 model, has a larger chip stapled to the rear of it) recording from my Sky+ via DTV/S-Vid and whatever.

Fair test for it ?

EDIT: Also meant to mention I have these cards too:

WINNOV Videum AV PCI

Pinnacle Studio Deluxe (Callisto)

Pinnacle DC30plus
