GeeXboX 1.1
GeeXboX is a GNU/Linux standalone media player system. more>>
The GeeXboX is no more than an awesome standalone media player. Why such a name ? Well, its main purpose is to play DivX movies and, as everybody usually call this kind of projects DivX boxes, well just prepended a "GeeX", cause thats for the geeks you all are.
GeeXboX is a full operating system, livecd that can run on any machine and it is based on the excellent MPlayer. No need for a hard drive, you just have to put the GeeXboX bootable CD into the CD-Drive of any Pentium-class computer to boot it. Moreover, GeeXboX is free software, created as open-source software. This means that everyone can modify it and build his own release of the GeeXboX.
You may wonder why you should have to boot another operating system to play your media files, but just think about the Mini-ITX platforms like VIA Epia/Eden or Shuttle barebones. Its now affordable to bring DivX to your home cinema, plugging this kind of computer directly to your TV !!
At the time of the first development releases (Dec. 2002), it was only capable of playing DivX movies, but now, nearly every kind of media file can be played with GeeXboX, with the OS supporting :
- MPEG 1/2 movies (MPG files, VCDs, DVDs ...)
- MPEG 4 movies (DivX, XviD ...)
- RealMedia and Windows Media movies.
- OggMedia streams
- Matroska streams
- Audio streams like : MP3, Ogg/Vorbis, WAV (AudioCD), AC3 ...
GeeXboX is an operating system but you still need something to boot on ;-) Youre lucky, GeeXboX is based on MPlayer, which can be considered as one of the less cpu-dependent movie players, thanks to the use of FFMpeg for decoding movies.
System requirements:
- Pentium-Class CPU or above (P2-400 should be quite enough)
- a VESA 2.0 compliant graphics card.
- an ALSA compatible sound card.
- at least 64 MB of RAM
- CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive
- Motherboard which supports booting on CD-ROM (should be ok for everyone
- Keyboard, Joystick or Remote Controller, using a Lirc-compatible IR (InfraRed) receiver (check http://www.lirc.org to build yours), e.g. Miro PcTVs one or ATI Remote Wonder.
Enhancements:
- GeeXboX 1.1. Although development never stopped, more than a year has passed without any new official GeeXboX release. This new one is a really good candidate for your HTPC multimedia distribution choice. It comes with an improved hardware support, providing dozens of new drivers (a lot of new WiFi controllers, DVB card chipsets and new remote controls). It also comes with a massively upgraded and more stable MPlayer, which features native decoding of various audio and video formats that used to be available through non-free Win32 DLLs only. Also, GeeXboX now has some decoding speed improvements and the OSD menu has been completely rewritten to provide a lot of new attractive features.

- The most Stable Cutting Edge DVD: featuring Compiz Fusion and Metisse (Technology Preview) integration
- Much more flexible: the Installer now features a really improved execution speed, RAID10 support, Ext4 Support, UUID device naming support, a Packages Selector, a Boot Services Selector and also a Core/Minimal Install Method (Server deployments)
- The Most Laptop Aware: tested and optimized also for Laptop usage
- X.Org 7.3 with automatic Monitor configuration
- KDE 3.5.7
- GNOME 2.18.2
- Strong identity: no Server applications installed (you will find them in the Business Edition)
- Less Duplicated Packages: removed about 140 duplicated applications
- Better Mactel support: added support for Intel ICH8M, Atheros Wireless cards, Backlight management and new Synaptics touchpads
- Better Out of the Box hardware support: Agere et131x,
- VMware Guest Installation Support
- Media Center capabilities: featuring GeeXbox 1.1 and Elisa Media Center (Technology Preview)
- Incredible set of installed and preconfigured Applications (see Packages List below)
- The most tested Stable Release: in the last 4 months, our Core Beta Team have done a great work to accomply our always growing QA standards. This transformed Sabayon Linux 3.4 in the most reliable version ever released.
Enhancements:
- We are happy to announce Sabayon Linux 3.4 Revision E. Distribution updates: introduced a (teaser) pre-alpha release of the Entropy stack (Equo application); updated Portato to 0.8.0; updated Compiz Fusion to work with XGL and AMD/ATI cards; updated WINE to 0.9.42 and fixed Wine Doors; re-introduced sudo after install; updated Second Life to 1.18.0.6; fixed partitioning issues on some system caused by dmraid stack (disabled by default now); re-introduced old and stable ipw3945 driver; updated pommed to 1.7 (better MacBook support); re-introduced old bcm43xx wireless driver.

uShare 1.0
uShare is a UPnP A/V Media Server for Linux. more>>
GeeXboX uShare is a UPnP A/V Media Server. It implements the server component that provides UPnP media devices with information on available multimedia files. uShare uses the built-in http server of libupnp to stream the files to clients.
GeeXboX uShare is a fork from the GMediaServer (UPnP Audio Media Server) from Oskar Liljeblad. It has been stripped down for GeeXboX purpose in order to be a lighweight multimedia media server.
By opposition to GMediaServer, it does _NOT_ grab any information from audio files (like ID3 tags) but is _NOT_ limited to audio files. GeeXboX uShare is able to provide access to both images, videos, music or playlists files (see below for a complete file format support list). It does not act as an UPnP Media Adaptor and thus, cant transcode streams to fit the client requirements.
uShare is written in C by Benjamin Zores for the GeeXboX project. It is designed to provide access to multimedia contents to GeeXboX but can of course be used by any other UPnP client device. It should compile and run on any modern POSIX compatible system such as Linux.
GeeXboX uShare is free software - it is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).
