GeeXBox, a MediaCenter under Linux

Following our previous news on Media Centers, there is a new solution to dedicate your Mac to video playback. This solution is based on the GeexBox linux distribution, which had been ported to PPC.
This distribution is very small, considering that the bootable iso is only 11Mb, and based on MPlayer to allow video playback, supporting all its formats (MPEG, DivX, Xvid ...).
We'll have to investigate if this solution requires only few hardware resources to play the videos, as it is on PC.
We'll be back in detail on the subject after some intensive testing...
