Windows Media Center 2005 has a very polished x-10 plugin...

I actually prefer www.sage.tv (Sagetv 4.0) because its reputation for being
most stable PVR software next to MS MCE 2005; plus its highly customizable.
I currently have 2 HDTV ATSC OTA tuners + 1 Analog capture card in the same
PC (for analog satellite tuner recordings).  This PC uses xPL WEB control
as
well :-)

Here's my customized TV Guide:

Hi Tom, and welcome to xPL.  It sounds like you've already got a good
grasp of how the system works - and a lot of enthusiasm, which is
always excellent to see.

I don't use Freevo, but I have done some work on a plugin for
MediaPortal, which is similar but for Windows XP.  There were some
discussions a while back about defining a general media.basic schema
as well as a list of standard names for remote control buttons - we
don't have anything cast in stone yet, so perhaps we can work together
on defining something of use to most if not all media-related devices.

BTW, can you draw?  We have a logo competition running at the moment
and could use some fresh inspiration (even if you're not to handy with
a graphics tablet, please share any ideas you might have).
