SARSMediacenter4

SMC 4 offers rich features to access media on your TV. All you need is a computer with linux installed and a remote control (receiver must be supported by LIRC).

SMC 4 is still a pretty young project so there are some more features to come in the future.

If you encounter any bugs or miss a feature, please report to max@maxbuegler.eu.
