Home Theater PC Video Podcast by Systm

revision
If you’re interested in Home Theater PCs, check out Monday’s Systm Video Podcast by Revision3.  Patrick Norton hosts PCMag.com’s Robert Heron and reviews basic HTPC requirements, hardware, discusses tuner cards, Hauppauge HD-PVR, Vista Media Center and even a mention of SageTV, BeyondTV and MediaPortal.  I watched the podcast on my SageTV HD Extender from the comfort of my couch.  I'd like to see them focus on the various software packages available and the setup in future podcasts.

They also discuss configuring your HTPC for the best video quality.  It’s very high-level and focuses on Vista Media Center for software, but is a must watch for all HTPC fans.
