I've been using it for a while - it's pretty good, but it still needs some
work.  The best feature IMHO is the ability to stream DVD files (including
menus) from a network share, without needing to create and mount an iso
image first.

It's not quite stable enough yet, and some of the menus are a little slow.
Changing TV channel also takes too long at the moment.

One other issue is that as they add more and more features, the menus
become
harder to navigate, with too many view settings buttons.  I'd like to
simplify things to make it more "guest friendly".  I might be
able to do
that with a custom skin, but I just haven't had the time.
