[LUGSB] Media Centre PC

[agent fat]

So I'm trying to set up a media center PC and am still trying to decide between Windows Home server and a linux solution.

I recently built a new pc and want to turn my older pc into a linux server. I aslo want to connect my tv tuner card to the linux pc so I can store all my files and the like on it and at the same time be able to stream live tv from that linux box unto my newer pc, and so far do not know if any such solutions exist on linux.

So far I've heard that MythTV is the best solution. Would it allow me to stream live tv to my other pc. 

If MythTV is the solution, how easy is it to setup(Im novice linux user).
