A little while ago I was considering MCE as the main software in my future HTPC. But recently I've changed my mind, my main concern being the proprietary recording format. I have two questions: does any other TV software, such as SageTV, BeyondTV, or MediaPortal, support HDTV reception, and if so, how does this functionality compare to that of MCE? Also, I've heard SageTV can be integrated into Meedio. How does this work? Does the two interfaces become one? What about functionality overlaps, such as photo viewing and music playback? Thanks in advance.
