I want a super home entertainment system– DVR, multi room audio and music, media center, the works.

So here is my latest hunger– moving out into an apartment with my buddies that is an incredible media hub.

Like…

  • Being able to record TV and send it to any computer at any time…
  • Or send LIVE TV to any room’s computer at any time!
    • If I’m lucky, that means that we can watch multiple channels from multiple boxes with only one cable box, or high-quality decipherable stream…
  • Being able to watch internet videos on the main TV…
  • Being able to watch whatever videos were loaded onto it!
  • Being able to send DVDs across rooms!
  • Being able to remotely tell the program to download torrents and other media, keeping users separate, but all within the upload limit, and allowing remote access to the files! 8)
  • Receive Audio from the main radio station in the house..
  • And broadcast to the household radio station from any computer!
  • Even to play a role as a game server!

It’d be complex, but damn.  I think this’d be awesome.  I think I’d need a great ethernet card, some nice RAID management.. etc..

What a headache, but fun!
