Move over DVD...

Why have a DVD player, when a modded XBox running XBox Media Center could be so much better?
I really like the idea of being able to play all the video I have on my computer on the TV, without having to have a big noisy PC sitting next to it.

It's not connected to the surround amp atm, as the amp only had one optical in, and I figured we use sky more :) I will connect it via regular phono's when I can be bothered :O)
