Multimedia Software

JRiver Media Center seem to be a popular windows choice. I want to use Linux so I will have to find an alternative.

Doing a search at alternativeTo listed some known an unknown possibilities.

The ones I am familar with:

XBMC

OpenELEC

GeeXboX - Currently using this one

MythTV and all its derivatives

LinuxMCE


The new ones I am not familiar with are:


Plex

Freevo - Forgot about this one

Miro

MediaPortal

Hulu Desktop

Enna - Looks dead

Serviio - Based on Java and has a paid "Pro" version

Twonky - Cool name

TVersity

TVMOBiLi

The real question is what software package plays audio the best?

Even more options:

Vortexbox

mpdPup based on Puppy Linux which I like:
